Earlier, when Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said the party faithful should “vote APC in all the elections”, the aggrieved supporters shouted him down, and he abruptly ended his speech. Four days to the elections, the political atmosphere in the state is getting tensed, with rising cases of attacks and electoral violence. On January 13, two rival factions of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) unleashed mayhem on each other in Sagamu area with many people wounded and vehicles destroyed. Meanwhile, the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has accused Buhari of instigating violence ahead of Saturday’s general elections. PDP national chairman, Uche Secondus, described the APC as a party in disarray, hence not fit to continue in power.
