A bomb on Tuesday exploded around the residence of the
Secretary to the All Progressives Congress in Edo State, Lawrence Okah.
Addressing journalists in Benin, Okah disclosed that he was
lucky to be alive, following the incident which occurred in the wee hours of
Tuesday.
Also speaking, a chieftain of the party and governorship
aspirant, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu warned against turning the state into a war
zone.
The APC governorship aspirant urged the Inspector General of
Police, Muhammed Adamu, and President Muhammadu Buhari to help resolve the
crisis rocking the state chapter of the party.
“Since the beginning of these series of attacks on our
members in the state, we are surprised that no arrest has been. Will the police
say they don’t know about it?
“We know that if the police want to do their jobs they can
do it perfectly, so we are calling on them to do their jobs and save our
lives,” he said.
Recall that APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole and the
State Governor, Godwin Obaseki have been engrossed in an alleged face-off over
who heads the party at state level.
The alleged face-off had led to the governor threatening to
suspend Oshiomhole from the party at state level.
Despite Obaseki’s threat, the APC National Chairman had
insisted that he was not fighting any member of the party.
