Violence Erupts At Oyo PDP Secretariat again

The crisis rocking the Oyo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) deepened yesterday as another violence erupted at the party secretariat along Queen Elizabeth Road, Ibadan.

The party’s publicity secretary, Alhaji Kehinde Salawu escaped death by the whiskers when suspected political thugs stormed the secretariat.

The party’s image maker who spoke with newsmen in Ibadan, attributed his safety to God’s mercy, adding that he least expected his ordeal from his people.

He said that a formal report had been made to the appropriate quarters on the violence but declined to link his attack to the boys and policemen from any of the camps among the governorship aspirants.

However, a PDP chieftain, Alhaji Adebisi Olopoeniyan fingered supporters of Oluseyi Makinde, one of the governorship aspirants in the violence but Makinde’s media aide, Azeez Akeem said the allegation was a mere blackmail against his boss.

Olopoenia had petitioned the state commissioner of police, Mr Kola Sodipo to call to order the police entourage attached to Seyi Makinde.

Olopoenia alleged that the policemen attached to Makinde, along with his personal assistant, Mr Seye Famojuro were going about threatening and harassing party members and the public.

The PDP chieftain wondered why eight policemen should be attached to an ordinary governorship aspirant in the state, thereby causing problems and harassments to the party members
