Former Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives and Labour Party governorship candidate in the Osun election, Lasun Yusuff has raised alarm that his life is in danger.

Yusuff raised the alarm on Friday at his campaign office in Osogbo, the State capital.



The former lawmaker said his campaign team and office have been under several attacks in few days, stating that the latest was the attack on his campaign office on Thursday evening by some political hoodlums.

According to him, he has received intelligence that some political opponents are after his life, adding that he has received threats.

He also seized the opportunity to intimate the press and public about the ugly incident/attack to his Campaign office yesterday and some previous physical attacks to his person and his entourage in the past two weeks. All these ugly attacks on him personally and his campaign office point to the fact that his life and all others involved in his Gubernatorial Campaign in Osun are in “SERIOUS DANGER”.

Lasun said “happenings in recent times, particularly since we secured the ticket of the Labour Party to contest the July, 16th 2022 election in Osun State, there have been some unusual behavior by certain individuals and groups towards me and my Campaign Team”.



Lasun also gave an insight in the events that has been happening in past weeks. He said “last week, some group of Political thugs abruptly stopped my convoy threatening and warning me of several planned attacks if we refuse to back down/stop our Gubernatorial Campaign”.

” In fact, to put it straight I was told point blank that my life is in danger and that they will continue to trail me to attack me and also disrupt all my campaign activities and events anywhere in Osun State”.

Explaining the latest attack, Lasun Yussuff said “exactly 11pm yesterday, some political thugs numbering about eight stormed my Campaign office at Oraki Estate barely thirty minutes after we had all left for the day,the thugs came with cutlasses. guns and other weapons and descended on my Bill boards, signposts and windows of the gate house destroying everything in sight”.





“The Night Guard, who was the witness to the attacks came out to challenge them with all his might. He was however able to battle them causing them to run away. But this happened after they had destroyed everything outside the Campaign office while the Night Guard’s resistance prevented them from gaining entrance to the Campaign Office.

He, therefore, seized the opportunity to intimate the Public and the whole world that his Political Opponents have sponsored some thugs to be after his life and to disturb his Gubernatorial Campaign. The Security Operatives are hereby put on Red alert in this respect.



He stated here unequivocally that “nothing can stop my campaign and no threats can stop me from becoming Governor of Osun State come July 16th 2022”.

“Thuggery and hooliganism or employing violence to win election will not work this time around! Even using money will not”, he emphasised.

This is handiwork of APC in Osun State. Lasun Yusuff is really a thorn in their flesh.

Barely two months to the governorship election in Osun State, a gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the state and a former deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Lasun Yusuf narrowly escaped being killed on Thursday by some political thugs who attacked his convoy in Osogbo.

The gubernatorial candidate who made this known in a press conference in Osogbo on Friday, added that his life is also in danger as his campaign office was not spared in the attack hinting, “Security operatives had been put on red alert in this respect.”

He, however, affirmed unequivocally that, “nothing can stop our campaign and no threats can stop me from becoming Governor of Osun State come July 16th 2022. I am peace-loving and expect all contestants to be. Thuggery and hooliganism or employing violence to win an election will not work this time around! Even using money will not!”

According to him, “All these ugly attacks on me personally and my campaign office point to the fact that my life and all others involved in my Gubernatorial Campaign in Osun are in serious danger.”

“Last week, some groups of political thugs abruptly stopped my convoy threatening and warning me of several planned attacks if we refuse to back down/stop our Gubernatorial Campaign. In fact, to put it straight, I was told point-blank that my life is in danger and that they will continue to trail me and also disrupt all my campaign activities and events anywhere in Osun State.”

“At exactly 11 pm yesterday, some political thugs numbering about eight stormed my Campaign office at Oroki Estate barely thirty minutes after we all left for the day. They came with cutlasses, guns and other weapons and descended on my billboards, signposts and windows of the gatehouse destroying everything in sight.”


“The Night Guard in panic came out to challenge them with all his might. He was, however, able to battle them causing them to run away. But this happened after they had destroyed everything outside the ccampaign office while the Night Guard’s resistance prevented them from gaining entrance to the Campaign Office.”

“I, therefore, seize this opportunity to intimate the Public and the whole world that my political opponents have sponsored some thugs to be after my life and to disturb our Gubernatorial Campaign. The Security Operatives are hereby put on Red alert in this respect.”


My campaign is based on issues and programs premised on changing the narratives for Osun and its people. The sitting Governor and other contestants are hereby advised to desist from thuggery and hooliganism and let our campaigns be based on sound debates focused on issues and our Osun economic growth and development programs.

U ain’t in AfghaEastern,and u are crying foul
Stop chasing clout baba

The people that killed Funsho Williams are after this one's life. They have vowed to fight dirty in the forthcoming election

Who among your opponents? The incumbent governor or the PDP? Why are they after your life? Is it because you’re a threat to them in the coming election or what? So many pertinent questions unanswered

This is actually Pdp style and it won't work.

They attacked Oyetola convoy too under the guise of Endsars. Security must be provided for these politicians.

Yoruba ti fi oko at'obo ko'gi elera nikan ko, won ko tanbolo wole mo. Osun a gba tan ba fi le je ki omo ATOUNRIWA je gov Osun state.

The story no dey add up sha. He categorically stated that the hoodlums numbering 8 attacked his campaign office with guns and cutlasses. I'm thinking, is it that only one night guard chased the hoodlums away? 1 against 8? Wow!

By the way, the said night guard did the head count at night, some few minutes past 11pm?

Interesting! I feel like this is a case of political gimmick.

So unfortunate some young guys still render their selves as thug. Seriously Naija youths are not ready to learn that this selfish politicians don't love them

You all flocks together.

The Democratic settings Ogbeni Abdu Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola brought back to the polity has already been Torn apart.

Omoluabi will always be an Omoluabi, God bless my Leader and Political mentor.

which lies here. Is it not the same Oyetola and his clueless gang that sent thugs to Aregbesola campaign House in first bank side niii . Oyetola even want to set the campaign House ablaze cos’ of the meeting the Top camp do have meets every Thursday in that place. Ever since Omisore has joined APC in 2020, it has been from one insecurity to another. It has been from one cases of thugs attacking Top members and Pdp members in the State to another.

Lol…Oga dey find sympathy votes
