OSUN ELECTION: Violence In Ejigbo, Voters on the Run
By Saheed Olatunji, Reporter
Voting was disrupted in Ejigbo, Osun State, today, after violence broke out at a polling unit during the ongoing Osun State governorship election.
It was gathered that voters, residents and officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) fled the polling unit as tension escalated in the area.
The incident reportedly began after a youth discovered materials allegedly linked to vote-buying and said to belong to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The situation reportedly escalated when individuals allegedly associated with the materials arrived at the scene and attempted to whisk the youth away.
Video footage from the scene showed residents running in different directions, while motorcycles and vehicles moved through the area as people attempted to escape the unfolding chaos.
It was unclear at the time of filing this report whether anyone was injured.
