Osun Election: Suspected thugs disrupt voting at Aregbesola’s unit

Voting was reportedly disrupted on Saturday at the polling unit of former Osun State Governor and immediate past Minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, after suspected thugs allegedly invaded the area.

The incident reportedly forced some voters to leave the polling unit, temporarily interrupting the voting process and creating tension among those present.

The development occurred amid the ongoing Osun State governorship election, with concerns raised over the safety of voters and the smooth conduct of the exercise in the affected area.

Some party agents at the polling unit alleged that the suspected thugs were affiliated with the All Progressives Congress (APC).

However, the APC agent at the polling unit, Mrs Abogunloko Olufunke, rejected the allegation, saying the individuals were not known to her or the party.

“Those thugs are not our members. I don’t know them,” she said.

The circumstances surrounding the disruption were not immediately clear, while details of any arrests or intervention by security personnel were still being awaited as of the time of filing this report.
