Osun billboard vandalism sparks blame game between APC and Adeleke camps
Ademola Adeleke’s re-election campaign team has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of orchestrating the destruction of campaign billboards in several Osun State local government areas. The Imole Campaign Council claims that the vandalism was politically motivated and carried out with the help of compromised security personnel. In response, the APC has dismissed the allegations, insisting their own campaign materials have been targeted instead. Both sides have called for investigations and accused each other of intimidation and diversion tactics.
