The assassination of an APC member last Friday in the Konto-Nkarfe region of the state has been disputed by the Social Democratic party’s campaign committee in Kogi State.
Alhaji Hassan Enape, the state head of the SDP, claimed during a press conference on Tuesday in Lokoja that the APC’s claim that the victim was shot by party supporters was completely untrue.
He asserts that “rather, APC thugs waylaid party supporters on their way to the palace of the Ohimege Igu, Konto-Nkarfe and destroyed the chairs and canopies erected to host SDP supporters and proceeded to the campaign ground shooting sporadically into the air when a bullet from their pump action guns hit the young lady.”
He also refuted claims that Muritala Ajaka, the party’s candidate for governor, was accompanied by thugs wearing police gear.
