The Governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 election in Ogun State, Segun Showunmi, has called on the newly appointed Presidential Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu, to probe the recent attacks on the PDP members at venue of the Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Abeokuta, the state capital.
You will recall that the governorship aspirant and other PDP supporters were flogged by some thugs welding sticks, on the day of the inaugural sitting of the Tribunal on June 5.
The Tribunal sitting had commenced pre- hearing of the petition filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Ladi Adebutu, against Dapo Abiodun of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
But political thugs unleashed terror on Showunmi and other PDP members out the venue at Isabo area of Abeokuta.
Showunmi while congratulating the pioneer EFCC Chairman on his appointment by President Bola Tinubu, reported the June 5 attacks and demanded that the incident be thoroughly investigated.
The PDP Chieftain expressed worry that the attack has dominated the media space, while alleging that Governor Dapo Abiodun had “pretended as if nothing happened.”
According to him, this type of activity is what lead others to recruit their militia which metamorphosed into the crisis now stemming in the northeast.
