The All Progressives Congress, APC, primaries in Ibeju Lekki Constituency 1 for the State House of Assembly has become inconclusive as thugs believed to be loyal to one of the aspirants Hon. Mojeed Fatai, shot and killed three people while soldier and police officers were also injured.
Lekki Times gathered that problem started when tags meant for delegates were only given to Hon. Fatai’s delegates. This, according to eye witness led to protest by Engr. Olowu’s delegates who insisted on using their party card as means of identification.
It was gathered that at that point thugs allegedly believed to be loyal to Hon. Fatai stormed the venue, shot sporadically and killing 3 persons while over 10 persons were injured.
Among the injured includes 2 Policemen and 1 Soldier. Meanwhile, Ibeju community has protested the imposition of Hon. Mojeed Fatai for 4th term, a situation which has degenerated tension in the area.
Effort to speak with the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer was abortive as he could not be reached as at the time of this report.
