#EkitiDecides: How APC Thugs Manhandled Me With Security Officials Watching – PDP Supporter

AN unnamed party agent of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has narrated how security officials were watching while she was being manhandled by thugs allegedly belonging to the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ekiti State.

This comes days after the State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, made similar claims against security agencies dispatched to the state to monitor the July 14 governorship election.

The gubernatorial election of the state which holds today and ongoing is a clear contest between the two major political parties in the country.

In the state, the PDP is the ruling party while the APC is the opposition.

The unnamed party agent who is a woman was allegedly assaulted by thugs believed to be agents of the opposition party after she refused following them to the APC having decamped from the PDP.

According to Premium Times which published the story, the incident took place at Unit 9, Ward 8, Ado Ekiti local government area, in the presence of security officials attached to the unit.

“One Olayinka Babawobe, he is a thug. He is the one who brought in three thugs and they started beating me.

“They ask me to kneel down, but I refused and they started beating me and the police were there.

“We were in PDP together and I was working PDP together. I was working for them, but they were taking the glory.

“When they were moving to APC, they called me but I refused,” she said.

The online medium reports that she was rescued from the men after she had been beaten and after more security officials were drafted to the unit.

The woman who was earlier without a party tag was given a chair to sit and observed the voting between the two voting points at the unit on realisation that she is the party agent of the PDP.
