NURTW Executive Arrested for Abducting and R*ping Woman Overnight in Oyo

The vice-chairman of Gbagi branch of the NURTW, Oyo State, Alhaji Saheed Tijani aka ‘Omo Olomo’, was arrested yesterday by the Oyo State police command for r*ping a 28-year-old woman.

Tijani and his cohorts allegedly abducted the victim, Abosede, around 9 pm on Monday, April 4, 2016, while returning home from work. The state Commissioner of Police, Leye Oyebade, disclosed Abosede was subdued by the men who threatened her ‎with a knife, The Nation reports.

He went on to say: “Having successfully threatened her to submission, she was abducted in the most brazen, commando-like manner and forcibly taken to an hotel where she was drugged and subsequently mercilessly r*ped till the next day. Tijani has since confessed to the crime.

"Investigation revealed that Tijani, until his arrest, was a pain in the neck of innocent citizens, especially women who he has raped in the past. His illicit s*xual escapade was known to many, but the victims could not report due to stigmatization and fear of attack. 

"This has also earned him suspension from the union on many occasions"
