The lawmaker representing Osun East at the Senate, Senator Francis Fadahunsi, has distanced himself from the arrest and continuous detention of the All Progressives Congress senatorial candidate in the district, Israel Famurewa.

Fadahunsi, who currently represents the Senatorial district, is seeking re-election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party.

But in a statement on Friday by the Director General, Senator Fadahunsi Campaign Organization, Ropo Oyewole, the lawmaker urged the APC to stop linking him to Famurewa’s arrest. “Famurewa, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress for Osun East, going by the immediate fact, was picked up after a notorious thug, Afolabi Fadahunsi, popularly known as Carlos was arrested by police operatives.

“So, we were not surprised that Famurewa was later picked up to face the full wrath of the law but what we however found surprising was the attempt to link Fadahunsi to Carlos and Famurewa’s journey to our distinguished Senator.”
