OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM THE AVIARY CLUB OF NIGERIA
The attention of the Aviary Club of Nigeria has been drawn to rumours and unverified narratives circulating in relation to Avian OPEYEMI SAUDIQ, a member of the Aviary Club of Nigeria who resides in South Africa and serves as a Chapter Intelligence Officer in one of our chapters in South Africa.
Over the past few months, allegations concerning his alleged involvement in a murder case have circulated in various quarters.
We wish to state clearly that the matter has been reported to the South African Police Service (SAPS) and is therefore in the hands of the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
The Aviary Club of Nigeria strongly appeals to members of the public, our members, and all concerned individuals to refrain from spreading unverified information, making accusations, or taking the law into their own hands.
Matters of this nature should be allowed to follow due process, and the competent authorities should be given the opportunity to investigate and establish the facts.
The Aviary Club of Nigeria believes firmly in law, order, justice, and due process. We will cooperate fully with the South African Police Service and any other relevant law enforcement agency within the bounds of the law to ensure that the matter is properly investigated.
At the same time, we recognise that every person accused of an offence is entitled to due process and the opportunity to defend themselves before the law.
We therefore urge everyone to allow the authorities to carry out their responsibilities without interference, intimidation, or the spread of potentially defamatory narratives.
We call on all members of the Aviary Club of Nigeria to remain calm, responsible, and law abiding, and to direct any credible information relevant to the case to the appropriate law-enforcement authorities.
The Aviary Club of Nigeria remains committed to justice, accountability, peace, and the rule of law.
