Kolade Alabi, Chariman of Bariga Local Government Area of Lagos state, has on Wednesday stirred panic amongst party members as he slumped while speaking at an All Progressive Congress (APC) stakeholders’ meeting.
The LG Chair who also doubled as the Chairman of the Association of all Local Governments and Area Councils in Nigeria (ALGON), Lagos state chapter, had reportedly collapsed during the meeting held at the party’s secretariat along Acme Road, Ikeja.
The incident occurred around 12:10pm, causing panic amongst attendees.
However, the LG Chairman was revived and immediately transferred to the hospital for proper treatment.
As captured in a post shared on X, the Aalabi was rushed into a vehicle with security operatives frantically clearing the road to aid the quick exit of the vehicle from the venue.
The meeting would however continue despite the scare.
