In a recent incident in Lagos State, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of promoting political violence and attempting to undermine democracy after an attack on NDC supporters at a town hall meeting in Ikeja. The APC, however, denied any involvement in the attack, attributing it to internal party issues.
The NDC's National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, condemned the attack as unfortunate and unwarranted, accusing the APC of engaging in barbaric politics. He stated that the party's actions were undermining democracy and threatening Nigeria's hard-earned democracy.
On the other hand, the APC's former spokesman, Seye Oladejo, denied any involvement in the incident, stating that his party was too busy with its own campaign activities in Epe, which is located far from Ikeja. He urged the NDC to focus on its internal affairs rather than making baseless accusations against the APC.
The identities of the attackers, their alleged sponsors, and the circumstances surrounding the incident have not been independently established as of the time of filing this report.
