Some objects suspected to be fetish were found today in the office of the Chairman of Okitipupa Local Government Area of Ondo State, Om’oba Abayomi Adesanya.
The objects which were found by one of the Chairman’s aides (name withheld) were carefully wrapped and strategically placed in the Chairman’s office.
A statement by his Press Secretary, Mr Martins Fasusi, said that this strange development caused panic among the staff in the Chairman’s office.
Eye witnesses strongly believed that the objects may have been dropped by malicious agents bent to cause harm and create confusion in the Council.
Adesanya, while reacting to this incident said, “the perpetrators of this devilish act have already failed in their plot. God will surely expose all the conspirators”.
He called for calm among all the staff in the Local Government Secretariat and enjoined all workers especially those in his office to go about their official duties without any fear, assuring them that this battle is of the Lord.
He said, “the Egyptians you see today, you will see them no more”.
