Alh. Hammed Tijani, junior brother to the late Mogaji of onilu compound family in Oje Ibadan, Chief Sulaimon Tijani has explained why a member of the Yoruba socio-cultural group, the Odua People’s Congress (OPC) and Yoruba Nation’s agitator, Musiliu Rotimi Tijani was absent during his brother’s burial.
Alh. Tijani who disclosed this while speaking with the newsmen in Ibadan appealed to the Department of State Services (DSS) which had placed Musiliu Rotimi Tijani on their wanted list immediately after their 2021 invasion of the house of Chief Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho in Ibadan.
“We have written to plead with the DSS and also want to use this medium to appeal again to the government to pardon my junior brother, Musiliu Rotimi Tijani who was a prominent member of the Yoruba Nation Group and close ally of Sunday Igboho, now that the dust has settled on the case leveled against them,” he noted.
He explained further that “I really feel for Musiliu because his late uncle was very precious to him, but the DSS are after his life if he tries to show up in Nigeria, and that was the reason why he was missing during his father’s burial ceremony last month.”
Meanwhile, nothing much was heard by the family concerning the Yoruba Agitator (Musiliu Rotimi Tijani), who was an active member of the Yoruba pressure group and also a good rice farmer.
