Tunji Bosun, AbeokutaThe All Progressives Congress Governorship candidate in Ogun State, Dapo Abiodun, was on Thursday attacked by political thugs in Abeokuta. Abiodun was on a campaign tour to the Abeokuta North Local government area when the hoodlums attacked him and his campaign team at Mokola junction. It was gathered that trouble started, when the campaign teams of Abiodun and that of House of Representatives candidate of the Allied People Movement, Mikky Kassim, met at Elega junction. Kassim reportedly alighted from his vehicle to control the traffic when the supporters of APC sighted him and assumed he was at the place to attack Abiodun. “But that notwithstanding, we have deployed our men to the area to keep the peace.”DOWNLOAD THE PUNCH NEWS APP NOW ON
