Three highly ranked members of the All Progressive Congress in Ogun State have miraculously escaped death.
The three APC leaders, the chairman of Ifo Ward 1, Aderibigbe
Asimiyu; another leader from the same ward, Fatai Akinlagun, and a youth
leader in ward 2, Segun Abolade. in Ifo Local Government Area of the
state were allegedly attacked by...
gunmen in their houses. Punch reports
that the gunmen were 15 in number and they all wore a shielding mask on
their faces.
They were said to have stormed the office of Asimiyu and homes of
Akinlagun and Abolade, shooting sporadically into the air to dissuade
people away. Sadly, their targets were not found. An anonymous source
told Punch that the angered gunmen shot sporadically at Abolade’s house
which made a lot of people in the area to run for their lives.
Although there are insinuations that members of a certain cult group
were responsible for the attack as they were said to have been led to
the area by some prominent members of a major opposition party in the
state.
“Something happened yesterday (Monday). A guy was in that area to
paste posters of a PDP House of Assembly Candidate, Taiwo Oyero, but
was prevented from pasting the posters; the guy could not even
identified those who stopped him. “What happened this morning (Tuesday)
was around 11am, these guys stormed the areas and headed for the
residents of APC leaders in the local government but none of them were
at home. These thugs started shooting sporadically while people,
including women, scampered for safety”, an anonymous source reiterates.
A member of the Ogun State House of Assembly, representing Ifo I
State Constituency, Olakunle Oluomo, who also spoke with our
correspondent, blamed the incident on the opposition.
