The Majority Leader of the Osun State House of
Assembly, Honorable Timothy Owoeye, has been caught for allegedly taking a
‘ritual’ bath inside a bush at Osunjela area of Osogbo, Osun State in the dead
of night.
Some
youths in the community had caught the legislator during the bath.
Some of the youths
alleged that he was bathing with blood but they could not ascertain whether it
was human or animal blood.
The
youths beat up the politician, seized his clothes and recorded him naked on
their phones.
The politician was said
to have negotiated with the youths and promised them certain things before they
returned his clothes and released him.
He
eventually gave some monies to certain people as promised.
He
lawmaker later reported the matter to the police following which several people
in the community were arrested for collecting money from the politician in a
fraudulent manner.
The
suspects were arraigned in court in Osogbo on Friday and were later remanded in
Ilesa prison.
All
attempts by Daily Trust to speak with the lawmaker were not successful as he neither picked
calls nor replied text messages sent to his mobile line.
