In the lead-up to the Osun governorship election, a shocking incident unfolded as Rep candidate Francis Eniade of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was gravely injured in a brutal attack barely two days prior to the event. Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, Adewale Egbedun, was accused of being the perpetrator behind the vicious assault, as a viral image on social media showed Eniade covered in blood.
Those claiming to witness the attack alleged that around a dozen individuals were injured, and numerous vehicles were destroyed. The Osun State Police Command had not yet officially confirmed the incident at the time of publication. Egbedun, who is supporting current governor Ademola Adeleke, had previously called for the arrest of Senator Francis Fadahunsi and Eniade for allegedly inciting violence.
Fadahunsi visited the Osun State Police command to address the accusations of targeting "Kill Accord Party supporters" on Wednesday.
