Gunshots in Ilase-Ijesa Osun State as gunmen take over polling zones

Gunmen believed to be working for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) early today took over the Town Hall Polling Zone in Ilase-Ijesa, Obokun Local Government, State of Osun, to scare away prospective voters.

Though a detachment of Police and other security agents came to the scene to restore order during which the thugs dispersed, the gunmen returned shortly after the law enforcement agents departed.

Sporadic gun shots were heard shortly after this which forced many prospective voters scampering to safety.
The Osun APC Situation Room calls on security agents for more vigilance.
