The Osun State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) on Sunday said thugs allegedly hired by the All Progressive Congress under the administration of former Governor Gboyega Oyetola are behind the spate on attacks on its leaders and its campaign offices.
The PDP called on the state APC to fulfill its promises to hired thugs saying that PDP has no agents of deaths like the APC and that the party is not involved in any attacks on APC offices.
In a statement signed by the state Caretaker Chairman of PDP, Dr Akindele Adekunle , the PDP urged APC to settle its internal problems involving its failure to settle Asiri Eniba and other imported thugs who were mobilized to hijack PDP strongholds and ensure maximum mayhem.
The statement came amidst reports of attacks on a campaign office of the APC in Ilesa Saturday night.
“We are shocked with all these rumours of attacks. What we heard is that after the arrest of Asiri Eniba and Rasheed Oko Ilu during the July 16 polls, Mr Oyetola and his team abandoned their recruited gangs. After the election, we were told nobody cared about the bad boys who were nurtured by them for fours years.

” We don’t know but we learnt those boys were angry and they are going after Omowaiye and others who anchored the recruitment drive for the former Governor. How is that our business? We are in government and we are busy with how to deliver on our five point agenda to the good people of Osun state.
” Please tell them to talk to their political thugs.We are too busy with our 100 days programmes to be going after a failed Commissioner and a deceitful former Governor”, the statement noted.
