  "summary": "The Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has expressed concern over reported cases of extra-judicial killings in Osogbo, the state capital, and other parts of the state. According to the APC, the frequency of violent incidents has raised concerns about the safety of residents and visitors to Osun.\n\nThe party, in a statement, called on the state government and security agencies to prioritise the protection of lives and property. The APC had expected that the conclusion of the August 15 governorship election would bring an end to reported killings in the state, but this has not been fulfilled, as per Daily Post Nigeria.\n\nThe situation is capable of creating fear among people from other states who might consider visiting or doing business in Osun, the APC said. The party described the reported security situation as a matter requiring the attention of stakeholders.",
