CHRSJ also alleged that the Police officers attached to F-SARS, arrested Olaleye on trump- up charge and  vowed to eliminate him if his family refused to pay the sum of N2500, 000 for his bail and this made his wife, Mrs. Janet Kolawole Olaleye and other members of his family to be running helter- skelter to source for money to save the life of their bread winner.

Adesiyan urged the F-SARS Magbon to arrest those children with Olaleye who was having Barber shop around the area but when Mr. Adesiyan got to know that those children were children of his supporters on the ancient town Obaship tussle, he told the men of F-SARS to release them on bail except Barber Kolawole Olaleye since 15th of October, 2019 for being the son of one of his opponents on the Obaship tussle till the time of writing this report.

Another source from the Police (F-SARS) informed the CHRSJ that 26 people have been penciled down for the arrest in the town (Ihunbo) and among them were; Ojo Jelili, Adeosun Adekunle,Fadairo Ojo,Ibrahim Aina, Jimoh Lekan, Ibrahim Oro, Babatunde Akeem and Fadiro Sola, noting that that they had earlier arrested  two of them  on the order of Mr. Adesiyan which they paid N100,000 each for their bail from the same F-SARS.
