Political tension has heightened in Osun State following reports that the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Munirudeen Oyebamiji, widely known as AMBO, allegedly escaped an assassination attempt.
The incident reportedly unfolded on Wednesday evening as the campaign convoy made its way back from the Ife Federal Constituency, where officials had just inaugurated a team of local party canvassers. According to initial accounts, unidentified gunmen suddenly emerged and unleashed gunfire targeting vehicles within the procession.
While the report has rapidly circulated across various digital platforms and sparked widespread concern, it has simultaneously triggered intense scrutiny and skepticism from online commentators. Several social media users have publicly questioned the veracity of the episode, pointing to perceived inconsistencies in how the attack was described. Critics noted that despite claims of multiple rounds being discharged, the impacts appeared concentrated on specific segments of the vehicles without causing casualties among the occupants or drivers, prompting public debates regarding the authenticity of the marks found on the automobiles.
As political maneuvering intensifies ahead of the upcoming gubernatorial showdown, security remains a central anxiety for stakeholders across party lines. To this point, law enforcement agencies and relevant security commands have yet to issue an official statement or independent verification detailing the core circumstances surrounding the event.
