Osun APC condemns attack on former commissioner, others
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State has condemned the attack on Remi Omowaiye, a former Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, and some other APC members by suspected political hoodlums in the Ilesa-West local government council area of the state.
It was learnt that Omowaiye and his supporters were attacked by thugs at the popular Isida Motor Spare Parts Market in Ilesa on Friday.
Omowaiye, who hails from Ilesa and was a former cabinet member in the Adegboyega Oyetola administration, was in the market to felicitate with the traders and market leadership over the yuletide when sporadic gunshots were heard, and everyone started scampering for safety.
Condemning the attack, the state Acting APC Chairman, Tajudeen Lawal, via a statement by Kola Olabisi, the Osun APC Director of Media, bemoaned the attack on Omowaiye and his supporters.
Lawal also stated that the attack was unacceptable, barbaric, cruel and condemnable.
He called on the Osun State Commissioner of Police and other security agencies in the state to rise to their responsibility of ensuring the safety of lives and properties irrespective of political leanings.
“There should not be a sacred cow in the efforts to unravel those behind the shameless and inhuman activities against the members of the opposition
