Reasons Labour Party Asks Police To Arrest And Prosecute Tinubu’s Daughter, Folashade Tinubu-Ojo

The Labour Party (LP) has called for the immediate arrest and prosecution of the Iyaloja General of Lagos State, Folashade Tinubu-Ojo for coaxing traders who failed to attend the Women’s rally in support of her father’s presidential ambition, to pay N5,000 or be shut down.

LP also urged President Muhammadu Buhari to declare a state of emergency in Delta State over what it said is “the act of brigandage,” where Labour Party “members are being subjected to daily attacks by the agents of the PDP in Delta State.”

National Publicity Secretary of the party, Arabambi Abayomi, in a statement issued on Monday in Abuja, said that the actions of the APC and PDP “are not in consonant with the tenets of Democracy.”

Arabambi said that the call became necessary following complaints by the affected traders while bemoaning the recurring attacks on members of the party and their offices in Lagos State.

Recalling an alleged attack on “the party’s offices in Ajegunle and other areas in Lagos,” Comrade Abayomi, disclosed efforts made by the party to enable a harmonious political environment in the state.

The statement however accused the Police Command in the state of refusing “to act on its clarion calls to create an enabling environment for all politicians in Lagos irrespective of their party’s affiliation.”
