In Osun State ahead of the gubernatorial election, two APC supporters were killed and another was critically injured in a violent incident. Ayegbo Oluwadele, the nephew of the APC Campaign Council Director-General Busayo Oluwole Oke, was shot dead at the Oluwole Oka family compound in Esa-Oke. Another APC member, Taiwo Oluwadele, was shot and is currently in a critical condition.
