The Osun State Police Command has warned individuals and groups against illegal protests or taking the law into their own hands following threats by a group identified as the “Congress of Cultists” to protest the killing of Dauda Oyeyemi, popularly known as Emir. The group, reportedly associated with the Neo-Black Movement, also known as Black Axe, had allegedly issued a seven-day ultimatum to the Osun State Government to identify and arrest those responsible for Oyeyemi’s death or face a protest. The police said they had received intelligence about the planned protest and warned that they would not allow any individual or group to use the development to cause violence or disrupt public peace. Oyeyemi was reportedly killed recently in Osun State, and following his death, another man, Adejuwon Adekunle, also known as Asa, was killed at his barbecue spot around Dele Yes Sir in Osogbo after he allegedly recorded a video.
