Photos: One Dies As Agege APC Holds Congress

A member of the All Progressives Congress in Lagos has been shot dead at the party’s local government congress in Agege. The member, identified as Nurudeen Olanose, was allegedly shot at Central School, Dopemu, during a fracas that ensued after voting had ended on Saturday.

Two others are in critical condition while nine people have been arrested and taken to Area G Police Division in Agege.

When contacted, Chike Oti, the Spokesperson of the Lagos State Police Command, said “I’ll get back to you.”

There are however different accounts of what led to the shooting as some said violence broke out after Mudashiru Obasa, the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, visited the venue and some said Obasa was never there.
