Attack On Funke Akindele: Lagos APC Blasts PDP

Lagos State All Progressives Congress (APC) has taken the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state to the cleaners for linking the attack on its deputy governorship candidate, Funke Akindele to the APC.

Lagos APC Spokesperson, Seye Oladejo, said; “The PDP people are well known for their wild allegations; if people were attacked, I think it is what the security agencies would be interested in; I don’t think the solution is to take it to the media.”

“As far as we are concerned, we are not in the business of violence; our party is going for victory, so why should we be distracted by people who cannot even put their house in order and want to come into government.”

However, the Lagos PDP Spokesperson, Hakeem Amode had stated that “The Ikosi local government chairperson sent the thugs to disturb our campaign.”

“Usually when we go to the market, Funke Akindele goes to the market to speak with the market women, and we know it is our right to be able to talk freely, a campaign to anybody.”

“The local government chairperson came into the market, used her car to block and brought a bunch of thugs to attack us in Kosofe local government, which is very, very sad; it is unbelievable we are not allowed to speak to people freely.”

“Under the new electoral act, we are free to campaign anywhere; this is Lagos, where we should be able to talk to everybody without intimidation or discrimination. That should not even happen.”
