* Oshiomhole Pelted With Stones At Ogun APC Rally

President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday at the Ogun State All
Progressives Congress presidential rally held in Abeokuta, escaped
being hit by stones as hoodlums pelted the National Chairman of the
party, Adams Oshiomole, with stones.

The programme, which commenced officially immediately after
President Buhari arrived the MKO Abiola International Stadium,
Kuto, Abeokuta, was paused for some minutes following the
violence.

Violence erupted when Oshiomhole was invited to the podium for
his speech.

As he began to speak, persons suspected to be hoodlums started
throwing stones at him and one of the stones flew in the direction
where the President was sitting.

He was saved by one of the security operatives who took the hit
for the President.

The development angered the leaders of the party, including
former Governor of Lagos State, Bola Tinubu, who left the podium
while the President was making his remarks.
