APC Demands Justice After Party Member Murdered in Ibadan
The Oyo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has urged security agencies to apprehend the suspected hoodlums responsible for the murder of party member Ridwan Adeyemo in Ibadan. Adeyemo, a commercial motorcyclist and APC member from Ward 06 of Ibadan South-West Local Government Area, was attacked by armed men on Friday in the Ita-Barika area of Agbokojo, Ibadan North-West Local Government Area, and died at the scene.
The APC alleged that Adeyemo was targeted for his political affiliation, as eyewitnesses reported that the attackers questioned him about his choice of party. Olawale Sadare, the party's publicity secretary, confirmed the incident and called for a thorough investigation.
Fatai Adesina, the APC state secretary, expressed concern over the political violence in the state and accused political thugs of threatening opposition members. The party pledged to support Adeyemo's family and cooperate with the police to ensure justice.
