Supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC), yesterday clashed in Ile-Ife, leaving scores with various degrees of injuries.


In a statement by its Director of Publicity and Research, Mr. Kunle Oyatomi, the APC alleged that the PDP went on rampage against the supporters of APC, who were celebrating Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola’s victory in last Saturday’s governorship election.

“Apart from physical injuries inflicted on our supporters, the PDP thugs extended their violence to Gbodo, where they attacked and damaged properties belonging to the father of the Executive Secretary of Ife South Local Government, Tajuden Lawal.

“Not done with their violence, they went ahead to vandalise shops in Itakogun.


“Fortunately, we are told the police have intervened and the situation is being normalised.”

Police Public Relation Officer (PPRO), Osun State command, Mrs. Folasade Odoro, however denied there was any clash between supporters of the two parties, saying; “People were only jubilant, not only in Ile-Ife, but all parts of the state.”
