Unknown shooters on Monday attacked the convoy of Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, during a roadshow he conducted in Osogbo, the Osun State capital.

It was collected that the gun-wielding ruffians, believed to be political thugs, waylaid his convoy and started shooting in a bid to frighten the former governor of the state and members of his entourage.

The pandemonium broke when Aregbesola got to Orisunbare market, close to Old-Garage when sounds of gunshots leased the air.

There was pandemonium as his supporters ran for safety.

A team of combined security operatives from the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Nigeria Immigration Service and Department of State Security, who were amongst Aregbesola’s convoy, repealed the hooligans.

This is coming after Aregbesola freely declared assistance for the former Secretary to the State Government, Moshood Adeoti and announced him as the next governor of the state.

Meanwhile, DAILY POST reported earlier that Osun State announced that it has reputable reports that some “misdirected cowards” have actually invaded Osogbo, the state capital with armed punks to foment problem.
