Meanwhile, Governor Ayo Fayose’s Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka confirmed the incident in a post made on his Facebook account.

BigPen Online recalls that three weeks ago, June 1 during a reception in honour of Fayemi in Ado Ekiti, a mobile policeman reportedly opened fire as Fayemi, surrounded by scores of party chieftains, was leaving APC’s state secretariat to move to the city centre in continuation of the rally.

A former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele and five other people were hit by bullets.

Ekiti governorship election is billed for next month.
