Osun Guber: Four injured as PDP, APC supporters clash in Ede

No fewer than four members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) were injured after supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) invaded the APC secretariat in Ede South Local Government Area.

The pandemonium left a vehicle, motorcycle and other valuable properties damaged at the APC secretariat.

It was gathered that trouble started when PDP members, holding their rally in the town, allegedly laid siege to the APC secretariat and beat up party members in the office.

A party member, Abdulateef Usman, who witnessed the attack, said; “The PDP members were holding their governorship rally in Ede today. They trekked from Oke gather to Oba Laoye Grammar School. The APC party secretariat in Ede South is on that road, via St Peters, and while they moved, some of the PDP members attacked the APC secretariat.

“Four APC members were injured and property destroyed, including bikes and vehicles.”

But spokesperson of the Adeleke Campaign Organisation, Olawale Rasheed, said “APC members attacked our supporters during the rally because they are envious that the Timi of Ede, Oba Munirudeen Lawal endorsed Adeleke.”
