Hired PDP Thugs Attack APC Members Staging Rally In Alimosho Lagos

Some suspected political thugs from the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, have unleashed terror on
members of the All Progressives Congress, APC,
staging a rally in Alimosho area of the state.

In the last four days, the attacks have spread from
Agege, where an APC supporter was gunned down by
suspected thugs of a PDP candidate in the area, to
other parts of the state.

Agbado Oke Odo Local Council Development
Area, LCDAs was the scene of another bloody
violence allegedly orchestrated by supporters of
the PDP.

Similar attacks occurred three years ago after the
then ACN (now APC) won the council election in the
area.

"A number of our members, Tunde Solaja, Nurudeen
Olukowi, A. Tobi and Jenrola are lying critically ill in
hospitals awaiting surgery to extract pellets and
bullets shot at them by some agents of darkness
adorned in the garb of political opponents. What
were their offences?

"Their only crime, to the ever desperate and
intolerant leadership and membership of the
Peoples Democratic Party was their effrontery to
express their rights to freely associate; to
associate and identify with the ideals of a greater
Nigeria as manifested in the programmes and
policies of the APC in our bid to salvage our
nation," said Aderemi Adeyemo, Chairman, Publicity
Committee, APC, Agbado Oke-Odo LCDA.
