The campaign director-general of Senator Ademola Adeleke’s Imole campaign, Lere Oyewumi, alleges that security forces arrested voters at the residence of Ibrahim Inaolaji, a lawmaker representing Irewole/Isokan State Constituency in Osun State. Oyewumi says 52 people were taken from the residence during the incident.
According to Premium Times, Oyewumi alleges that about 24 police officers stormed the residence in the early hours of Saturday, damaged the gate, and arrested those inside, including the Accord Party chairman in Irewole Local Government Area. Vanguard similarly reports Oyewumi’s claim, describing it as intimidation ahead of the Osun governorship election.
The two outlets present the allegation in broadly similar terms, but differ in specific details, including the number of police officers involved and whether specific political figures were among those arrested. Both frame the claim within the broader context of election preparations and alleged intimidation.
