Tension In Osun As Angry Mob Destroys, Sets Ablaze Adeleke’s Billboards
An enraged mob damaged and set ablaze Senator Ademola Adeleke’s campaign billboards in Ejigbo town, Ejigbo Local Government Area, Osun State, according to reports.
According to press reports, a crowd was seen smashing and tearing down billboards in several parts of town.
Adeleke is a gubernatorial candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Osun 2022 election.
The cause of the incident had not been determined at the time of filing this report, but it is believed to be related to the recently concluded Osun PDP primaries for the Osun State House of Assembly and House of Representatives elections.
According to sources, the mob may have been sparked by supporters of popular candidates who lost in the primaries.
Some hopefuls who are seeking re-election but were left out by Senator Ademola Adeleke have expressed emotions of betrayal in the aftermath of the poll.
