Former Caretaker Local Government Chairman of Irewole Council, Osun State, Babajide Jooda, has filed a lawsuit against the Inspector-General of Police, Tunji Disu, and former Force Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, for declaring him wanted in connection with a forged court order. The suit, filed at the Federal High Court in Abuja, also names several other government officials and police officers as respondents.
Jooda alleges that the arrest warrant and the published advertorials declaring him wanted for terrorism, illegal possession of firearms, and culpable homicide are illegal. He states that the court order authorizing the publications was forged. Jooda was arrested and released multiple times due to charges against him, which were later withdrawn. He claims the police actions against him were politically motivated.
