LG crisis: Anarchy in Osun as sacked Irewole chairman, 2 others shot dead by thugs

The sacked chairman of Irewole Local Government, Osun State, Remi Abass, has been shot dead by unknown gunmen at the local government secretariat in Ikire.

Eyewitnesses said the attackers stormed the secretariat in broad daylight on Monday, firing multiple gunshots.

“It was sudden and chaotic. People ran for safety,” said a local resident who requested anonymity.

The Osun State Police Command confirmed the incident and stated that investigations had begun. “We are working to apprehend the perpetrators and restore calm in the area,” said Police Public Relations Officer, SP Yemisi Opalola.

Abass was among the local government chairmen, elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, sacked by the Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo in November 2022.

Meanwhile, two persons have also been confirmed dead in Boripe LGA of the state over the fracas that erupted when some hoodlums allegedly working for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the All Progressives Congress, APC, attempted to take over the council.

The victims, whose names were given as Ege and Igara, according to eyewitnesses, were shot dead by hoodlums.

It was gathered that Ege, who decamped from the APC to the PDP recently, was the only son of his parents, with his father also said to be a member of the PDP.

One other person whose name was given as Yinka, a photographer, was also shot and is currently in critical condition at an undisclosed hospital.

The situation has caused panic in the area as residents scamper for safety.
