“I urge our people to protect themselves and their heritage against the bully tactics of this dying government.”
“Recall again that our Party, the PDP originally fixed her campaign flag-off for Saturday 5th September, 2020 before the APC went ahead to pick the same date for her flag-off. In the interest of peace and the safety of our State we shifted our flag-off to a new date, at least to avoid bloodletting,” Mr Jegede noted.
“Today, the 16th day of September, 2020, having followed all laid down processes required to proceed on peaceful campaigns by the security agencies, and having been duly cleared to proceed on campaigns across Akoko South West Local Government, Gov. Rotimi Akeredolu led his convoy our way against the well established norms for peaceful elections.
In a statement by his spokesperson, Olatunde Olabode, the governor described the violence as unfortunate, considering the prevailing peace that his administration has maintained in the state.
