A Youth leader of the All Progressives Congress was on Saturday clubbed to death and his body set ablaze by thugs in Ikpoba Okha Local Government Area of Edo State.
The Youth leader, Igie Osayande, met his untimely death when thugs invaded Ward 9, Units 9, 10 and 11 in Obagienevbosa Community, off Sapele Road, in Ikpoba Okha Local Government Area.
According to the APC Agent in Ward Unit 11, Mr Sunny Osagiede, trouble started when the thugs stormed the area demanding to be accredited long after accreditation had closed and voting had commenced.
According to Osagiede, efforts by the leader of the thugs ( names withheld) to get accreditation were rebuffed by the Presiding Officer who told him that voting had already commenced. He was then prevailed upon by the policeman on duty at the unit to leave the area.”
Osagiede said the trouble escalated when the thugs returned to the ward after the calls with his boys and scattered the ballot boxes and tore the ballot papers into shreds.
