The crisis over local government administration in Oyo State worsened on Monday when a man identified as Abdulasisi Isa was shot dead during a clash in Surulere Local Government Area of the state.
He was killed when supporters of the All Progressives Congress and those of Peoples Democratic Party clashed over who is the authentic chairperson of the local government.
Olamiju Alao-Akala, son of a former Governor of the state, Adebayo Alao-Akala, alleged that he was also attacked. Mr Olatunde said that despite the Court injunction which certified that the elected chairpersons were the authentic occupants of the seats, the PDP still went ahead to cause trouble.
