Speaking to journalists at the State Criminal Investigation Department, Iyaganku, Ibadan, Tuesday after he was discharged from hospital, Wakili said he was alerted by the women in his compound of the presence of those who arrested him.

“I told them to run for their lives, but I stayed back, lying down because I was sick and unable to run,” Wakili stated as quoted by Oyo Affairs.
