Supreme Court: Osun APC alleges planned attack by PDP on members

The All Progressives Congress in Osun State, has accused the Peoples Democratic Party and the state government of a plan to attack members of the APC across the local government council areas in the state.

In a statement by its chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, on Saturday, the party said the alleged planned attack was being orchestrated because of Friday’s Supreme Court judgment.

Lawal said five members of the APC in Otan-Aiyegbaju, Boluwaduro Local Government Council Area of the state had already been attacked and grievously wounded by some hoodlums allegedly working for the PDP.

The APC chairman urged the Inspector-General of Police and the Nigerian Security Agency (NSA) to be alerted to the situation and prevent the breakdown of law and order by the state government.

“The question that is agitating the right-thinking members of the society is how can a person’s case be declared incompetent and struck out, and the person be claiming victory?

“We are imploring our members and supporters to continue to imbibe the principles of the rule of law, which have carried us this far in our political journey, to instil sanity into the local government administration in the state.

“We are not unaware of the fact that Governor Adeleke and his wandering political co-travellers are needlessly engaging in stratagem as tactics to keep their gullible followers’ hope such that the imminent implosion in their political camp will not happen earlier than expected,” the statement added.
