There was tension at the palace of Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo, Alake of Egbaland, on Saturday, when hoodlums stormed the place used as venue of the ongoing state congress of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

A faction of the APC in the state had rented the event centre inside the palace in Abeokuta, capital of the state, as venue of its congress.

Daily Trust had reported how the two factions in the state were preparing for parallel congresses.

The factions are led by Governor Dapo Abiodun and Senator Ibikunle Amosun, his predecessor.

However, shortly before the exercise commenced, gunmen broke into the venue, which was being used by the faction loyal to Amosun.

Hundreds of persons, including security operatives, scampered for safety amid the pandemonium.

The crowd of party supporters later threw stones at the hoodlums who later fled the scene.

Apparently aggrieved that the security agents, including Police, NSCDC operatives, did not resist the hoodlums, the APC members, mostly youths, charged towards the security men and chased them away.

However, the security personnel momentarily ran, but they turned against the aggrieved youths, shooting into the air to resist further attacks.

The police had on Friday warned against political thuggery and violence ahead of the congresses.

Daily Trust reports that the warring factions held parallel ward and Local Government congresses last month.

The factions battling for the soul of the ruling party have now concluded plans to also hold separate congresses to elect the state executive members of the APC.

Amosun group had picked the Ake palace ground, Abeokuta as venue of its congress, while Abiodun’s faction  is holding its congress at main bowl of the MKO Abiodun stadium, Kuto, Abeokuta.

Police can only threaten peaceful and unarmed protesters
When they see men with ordinary matchetes and baton they "Usain Bolt"

The way politicians behave will eventually doom democracy in this country. Politics has always endeared instability and insecurity.

They have been doing since 1999.
Has any one arrested the former Local Government that kidnapped party Chairman in Ogun state?

This is further proof that APC is behind most electoral violence and malpractices across the country.

Imagine gunmen invading revered palace of Alake, a first class traditional ruler just to cause havoc and mayhem because of State Congress ...

Same in Ibadan where the ongoing State Congress was suspended due to forging of documents.

How evil can a party be ?

Oyiboupdate and other BMC miscreants, e no augur well for una if una no blame ipob for this attack. Bunch of valueless e-thug$.

Chimps muderfuckers. They are mentally capable of ruling themselves. It might take another hundred years for self rule to be possible in Nigeria. The mentality of the citizens is not as sound as that of common ants.. That is how bad it is.
