Following his release by political thugs who abducted him for 2 hours in Jobele, the Chairman of Afijio Local Government Area of Oyo State, Samuel Aderemi, has been hospitalized.
Aderemi, who was one of the local government chairmen sacked by Governor Seyi Makinde in 2019, was taken by the political thugs after they stormed the council’s secretariat to prevent him and some All Progressives Congress councilors from resuming duty.
After being abducted and driven to an unknown destination, the Council Chairman was rescued two hours later by security agents but left with injuries.
Similar chaotic scenes were witnessed at other local government secretariats where some sacked APC local government chairmen tried to resume duty.
