Osun APC Alleges Plot To Kill Aregbesola

The All Progressives Congress (APC),
Osun State chapter, yesterday said it
had received a red alert that a leading
opposition party contracted foreign
snipers to assassinate Governor Rauf
Aregbesola during his campaign trail.
“The masterminds behind this plot are
the party’s chieftains, from a S-West
state and the opposition party”s
candidate for the August 9 election in
Osun,” the party said.
According to APC, sources from within
the opposition party informed the APC
that “there is great consternation within
the party that for as long as Aregbesola
is present and visible, the election
cannot be rigged, so their last option to
‘win’, according to sources, is to take out
completely the governor, and they
needed the best professional killers in
the world, this is why they have
contracted the foreign firm..
“It is not clear if Abuja is involved in
the plot, but sources say that security
infrastructure in the country may not be
unconnected,” APC said.
The APC recalled that it had alerted
Nigerians and the international
community of plans to militarise the
state one week to the election and
terrorise APC leadership and assassinate
some of them.
