A similar incident occurred last Thursday at Agbajiole and Pakata areas of Ilorin metropolis.<\/p>\n

Four members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) were injured in that attack.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s incident, according to residents of the area, started at about 11:30am when fully armed APC thugs stormed their area and shot sporadically into the air to scare people away.<\/p>\n

According to the President of Agbaji Development Association, Alhaji Musa Olanrewaju Yusuf, the rampaging thugs were led by Yahaya Seriki and Musbau Esinrogunjo.<\/p>\n

He said 11 people, who sustained injuries from gunshots, were taken to General Hospital, Ilorin and a private medical facility for treatment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
