Jegede said he was at the palace of Oloba of Oba-Akoko with members of PDP who were in his entourage when some armed thugs in the entourage of Governor Akeredolu shot at the vehicles of PDP parked in the town.

He disclosed that he called Akeredolu and informed him about the incident and that the governor expressed shock.

In its reaction, yesterday, APC alleged that PDP thugs attacked Governor Akeredolu’s convoy and set campaign vehicles ablaze in same Oba Akoko.

“Hoodlums loyal to the PDP governorship candidate, Jegede, on Wednesday attacked the convoy of Governor Akeredolu, at Oba Akoko in Akoko Southwest LGA of the state.

“Governor Akeredolu and the APC campaign train was on the way to Ikare-Akoko in continuation of the local government campaign rally when the PDP struck and attacked the convoy of the campaign train.

“The branded campaign vehicle donated to Akeredolu campaign by Ambassador Sola Iji has been set ablaze by the PDP hoodlums.
