Fresh details have emerged on why Edo State Commissioner for
Arts, Culture, Tourism and Diaspora, Mr. Osaze Osemwingie Ero, was
arrested by INTERPOL.
Contrary to reports that Osemwingie Ero was arrested for money
laundering, some top government officials confirmed to our reporter
that he was arrested for cult-related activities.
The sources said Ero was arrested in Amsterdam, Holland and not
France.
It was gathered that the Commissioner was arrested as part of
INTERPOL’s investigation into cult activities in Europe.
His arrest was said to have been connected to the arrest of some
Nigerians in Italy for prostitution racketeering, cultism, pimping
and other offences.
The source said Ero was among some prominent Nigerians named by
the suspects as one of the ring leaders of the confraternity.
Ero was said not to be aware that he was on the wanted list of
INTERPOL until he was arrested.
According to one of his close friends, “Investigation is over.
Mr Osazee Ero will soon be home. There is nothing like money
laundering or dollar haulage to France as peddled by and believed
by some enemies of Governor Obaseki.”
