The campaign organisation of Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, on Thursday accusing the Action Congress of Nigeria of causing the death of one of the governor’s supporters, Mr. Adeniyi Oyen.
The Mimiko Campaign Organisation in a statement by its Director of Media, Kolawole Olabisi, said he was shot dead when suspected ACN thugs invaded the venue of the campaign rally organised by the governor’s Labour Party in Akungba Akoko on Wednesday evening.
Olabisi alleged that several people who were also shot are now receiving treatment at the Federal Medical Centre in Owo and other undisclosed hospitals in Ikare Akoko.
The Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr. Danladi Mshelbwala, confirmed the death of the deceased, noting that Oyen and two others were shot by suspected cult members after an LP campaign rally at Holy Trinity Primary School play ground, Akungba Akoko.
But the camp of ACN governorship candidate, Rtomi Akeredolu (SAN), “challenged the LP and Governor Olusegun Mimiko to explain to the whole world what resulted to a free for all at Akungba Akoko after his campaign visit.”
A statement by the Director Media, Publicity and Strategy of ACO, Mr. Idowu Ajanaku, “called on security agents to investigate the cause of the fight which was alleged to be over the sharing of the campaign loot that Mimiko has delivered to his party men at Akungba during the campaign visit.”
