Tensions are high in Edo State following an alleged attack on the motorcade of Senator Okpebholo.
Okpebholo, who returned from Abuja with Edo State deputy governor, Rt Hon Philip Shaibu, was reportedly targeted by members of the Edo State Security Network and Governor Obaseki’s thugs, led by Francis Inegbeniki.
The incident resulted in the tragic deaths of three of Okpebholo’s mobile policemen. Eyewitnesses claim the attack was a deliberate and coordinated effort to disrupt the Senator’s movements and cause harm to the Governorship candidate.
