The Coalition of Civil Societies (Pro-Democracy and Human Rights) in Ogun State, has alerted the Ogun State government and members of the public to be wary of the activities of some impostors who attempted to hijack the leadership of the coalition in the State.
The coalition also called on the law enforcement agencies to arrest and prosecute anyone laying claim to the leadership of the coalition other than the recognized executive members.
The chairman of the coalition in Ogun State, Olayinka Folarin raised the alarm at a general meeting/state of the affairs discussion forum for leaders of civil society and non-government organisations in the State.
He alleged that some politicians were behind the failed attempt by some people to hijack the leadership of the coalition in the State for their selfish interest.
According to him, those behind the failed attempt to hijack the leadership of the coalition in the State were being sponsored to disrupt the peace of the State.
Folarin said, “We want to condemn the failed plots of some politically motivated characters who attempted to highjack the unified umbrella for all the Civil Society and Non Governmental organization’s in Ogun State.
“We commend the leadership of the coalition for not dignifying them with any reaction since their failed mission.
“However, inasmuch as we would not want to dignify these characters with any reaction, there need to alert the government, politicians and unsuspecting members of the public on the activities of these people”.
