Labour Party’s governorship candidate in Lagos state, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, has condemned what he described as “the massive violence” unleashed on the party’s supporters in many parts of the state.

He said supporters of the party were attacked in Ikate, Surulere, Sangotedo, Aguda, Oshodi among others.

Gbadebo alleged that the ruling party orchestrated violence in most areas seen as the stronghold of the party in the presidential and national assembly poll.

“We are disturbed by the reporting we are getting about the attacks on our supporters in Ikate, Sangotedo, Aguda, Oshodi, Osolo among others. This is sad for democracy. Ballot boxes were snatched, voters threatened and beaten. We saw the video where a thug was asking those not voting for APC in Surulere to leave the queue if they don’t want to be beaten,” he said.

The former Lagos West senatorial candidate, who expressed satisfaction about the performance of the party in most polling units in the state, urged the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to upload results on their portal as promised. (Sunday Independent)
