The All Progressives
Congress, APC, Osun State chapter, yesterday said it had received a red alert
that a leading opposition party contracted foreign snipers to assassinate
Governor Rauf Aregbesola during his campaign trail.
“The masterminds behind
this plot are the party’s chieftains, from a S-West state and the opposition
party”s candidate for the August 9 election in Osun.”
According to APC,
sources from within the opposition party informed the APC that “there is great
consternation within the party that for as long as Aregbesola is present and
visible, the election cannot be rigged, so their last option to ‘win’,
according to sources, is to take out completely the governor, and they needed
the best professional killers in the world, this is why they have contracted
the foreign firm..
“It is not clear if
Abuja is involved in the plot, but sources say that security infrastructure in
the country may not be unconnected,” APC said.
The APC recalled that
it had alerted Nigerians and the international community of the party’s plans
to militarise the state one week to the election and terrorise APC leadership
and assassinate some of them.
