Osun APC Crisis: Lawmaker Alleges Threats On His Life

The political crisis within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun state is beginning to take a new dimension as the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Lasun Yusuf is alleging that some leaders of the party and former political office holders are after his life following his intention to run in the 2018 governorship election.

The Deputy Speaker’s Aide, Dr Remi Ajala, told journalists in Osogbo that his principal has already reported the threats to the Department Of State Services (DSS).

Meanwhile, one of those being accused by the deputy speaker has dismissed the allegations as false and an unnecessary alarm.
