The management of Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library has condemned the “gestapo-like invasion” of its premises during the early hours of Sunday.

Officers of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had reportedly stormed the premises of the library where some people gathered for a private ceremony.

The armed men said to have been led by one Olapade were said to have engaged in sporadic shooting and threatening people in the premises.

The management of OOPL in a statement on Sunday made available to journalists by its Managing Director, Mr Vitalis Ortese described this sting operation as claimed by the EFCC as a blatant disrespect for the people’s fundamental rights as well as the rights of the OOPL as a corporate citizen.

The management insisted that it was needless for the anti graft agency to have acted as it did as the organiser of the private event had police officers on ground while additional officers were equally sent in from the Kemta Police Station, Abeokuta.

The management demanded for explanation over the raid as well as due apology to those whose rights were trampled upon.

The management stated that it will not hesitate to seek legal redress and applicable sanctions against the anti-graft agency if it fails to tender its unreserved apology over the incident.

The statement read, “The invasion, led by one “Olapade” caused serious panic and chaos, leading to serious injuries among

participants trying to escape the shooting and near carnage that resulted, and causing terror among residents on the site.

“On inquiry by phone, the “Olapade” informed the Managing Director of the OOPL establishment, Mr. Vitalis Ortese, that they were acting on an intelligence about a private event in the amusement facility of the complex. They also informed management that the police have been duly informed of the operation.

“It should be noted that the event was a private event that had been widely advertised to members of the public for days prior.

“It should also be noted that both the police officers stationed at the OOPL gates and the additional police sent from the Kemta Police Station, as requested by the organizers of the event and management, stated that they were not informed of any planned operation by the EFCC, and neither did they present any warrant.

“And when the armed men were accosted by OOPL security and assisting police officers, they simply retorted, ‘We are doing our job.’

“The Management wishes to state that this action by the EFCC is a clear case of invasion of private property, infringement of OOPL rights as corporate citizens, and indeed a stark and blatant violation of the rights of the people who so gathered for the event.

“The management has commenced its investigations of the invasion and will take up the matter with the highest authorities, including the EFCC, the police, and the Department of State Security.

“In the meantime, management demands an explanation of these impudent actions from the Commission and an apology from the EFCC authorities for the infringement of its rights, to all those who gathered, and those who sustained serious injuries from the gangster-like induced chaos.

“Failure for which the management will be compelled to seek redress and sanctions as appropriate.”

The EFCC on its x handle on Sunday confirmed the Abeokuta raid when 93 suspected Internet fraudsters were arrested by the operatives of its Lagos Zonal office.

The anti graft agency said “Operatives of the Lagos Zonal Directorate 2 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested 93 suspected internet fraudsters in Ogun State.

“They were arrested on Sunday, August 10, 2025 in a sting operation in Abeokuta, Ogun State, following credible intelligence about their suspected involvement in internet crimes.

“Upon their arrest, 18 vehicles and mobile devices were recovered from them.They will be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.”
