While narrating their ordeal in the hands of biased police officers, Osolana appreciated  Chief Bode George and other Party leaders like  Otunba Segun Adewale, Prince Wale Gomez and the rest.

He also thanked Hon. Muka and other PDP leaders in Agege Local Government for standing firm upon the oppression from the ruling party.

Meanwhile, he confirmed that all 18 members arrested unlawfully have been released.

"For all of us, the unjust arrest has renewed our strength to proceed. And the Freedom movement has just begun and we shall not relent in looking for better Agege Local Government," he said.
