The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State has accused the State Police Command of arresting five of its members following a gunshots incident at the party's campaign convoy in Ososa, Odogbolu Local Government Area. PDP Chairman, Dr Abayomi Tella, alleged during a press conference in Abeokuta that the attack was politically motivated and called for a thorough investigation.
The incident occurred on Wednesday during the party's Ogun East campaign flag-off, which began peacefully. Hoodlums allegedly attacked the convoy with gunshots and stones, causing damage to several vehicles and injuries to some party members. Tella expressed concern that the arrested members were the ones who were attacked and are now in custody, while the perpetrators of the attack have not been held accountable. The police spokesperson, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, has not responded to requests for comment.
