The main opposition party in Nigeria, PDP claims some of its members were killed and others injured in the controversial Osun-rerun election.
The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party in Osun State, Mr. Soji Adagunodo, has said the party is compiling names of its members either killed or injured by hoodlums during the governorship rerun held in the state on Thursday.

Adagunodo said the PDP had invited leaders of the party at the ward levels all over the state to get actual reports of what happened during the supplementary poll.

He said some members of the party were killed during the poll on Thursday while scores were injured but said the party would give out the details very soon.

The PDP chairman said, “We are compiling the names of our members who were killed by APC hoodlums and those injured. We don’t want to give the figure piecemeal. We will give a comprehensive detail of the unimaginable assault visited on our people.

“We will release the names and location where the incident happened very soon. The robbery that happened on Thursday was seen by the whole world and the party has condemned it. Observers were attacked, journalists were beaten and our members were killed and some injured.”
