Demonstration at the State Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress in Osogbo on Saturday morning turned bloody as suspected political thugs attacked members of the party.

A man identified as Muyideen Ajetunmobi who puts on a cap with inscription of “Oyetola 4+4” was attacked by thugs who allegedly followed the secretary of the party, Rasaq Salinsile.

“It is true. I was attacked at the party secretariat by TOP members who insisted that I should remove my cap. They all followed party secretary Alhaji Salinsile enter the secretariat.”
