‘I fainted severally’ – Fulani warlord, Wakili breaks silence on arrest by OPC
Iskilu Wakili, a Fulani warlord, who accused kidnapping and masterminding several cases of abduction at Ibarapa zone of Oyo State, has denied his involvement in such crime.
Wakili told Nigerian Tribune on Monday, at the State Criminal Investigation Department at Iyaganku, Ibadan, that he has never been involved in crime during his stay in the zone for over 20 years.
He also disclosed that two of his children were kidnapped in 2020, and he had to pay millions of naira to secure their release.
His words, “I told them to run for their lives, but I stayed back, lying down because I was sick and unable to run,” Wakili stated.
“I fainted severally before we got there. From the police station, we were moved to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Iyaganku, Ibadan.
“I later learnt that my house had been razed and my son’s wife, called Kande, was shot. She’s lying in the mortuary now.”
