A report on Premium Times says gunmen believed to be working for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) early today took over the Town Hall Polling Zone in Ilase-Ijesa, Obokun Local Government, State of Osun, to scare away prospective voters.
Though a detachment of Police and other security agents reportedly came to the scene to restore order during which the thugs dispersed, the armed men were said to have returned shortly after the law enforcement agents left the area.
Sporadic gun shots were heard shortly after their return which forced many prospective voters scampering to safety.
