According to the state Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, in a statement issued, the gunmen came in four Hilux vehicles and a car to unleash the pandemonium.
“Shortly before they arrived, streetlights along Ajilosun Street where the APC secretariat is located were switched off. The hoodlums wounded the security man at the gate of the APC office,” the statement said.
Olatunbosun claimed that the Director of Department of State Service, Mr. Samuel Tamuno and the Commissioner of Police, Taiwo Lakanu, had been informed about the development.
When contacted, Lakanu confirmed the crisis saying, “I don’t think there was any sporadic shooting there. But I have drafted my men there to maintain peace and order.”
The party said Governor Ayo Fayose had concluded plans to hold a rally at Fajuyi Roundabout in Ado-Ekiti on Saturday in a bid to disrupt the APC presidential rally scheduled for the same day in the city.
It will be recalled that Governor of Ekiti state, Mr. Ayo Fayose has attacked the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, yet again in another advert saying he is too old to be president of Nigeria.
The previous advert on Punch had somewhat disagreeable undertones as it led the reader to suspect that Fayose expected Buhari to die while in office.
