Supporters of former Osun Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, operating under the name, The Osun Progressives, TOP, on Saturday invaded the State Party Secretariat, in Osogbo and chased away the members of the Appeal Committee, who had arrived the state, yesterday.

The group had submitted its petitions to the party secretariat in Abuja, which were in turn delivered to the Appeal Committee for scrutiny.

But rather than allow the committee to do their job, TOP members, led by its Chairman, Elder Adelowo Adebiyi and Gbenga Akanwo, led armed thugs to the party secretariat, beating everyone in sight, especially those warring any cap or T-shirt that identify them with the Governor of the state.

Thugs wearing face caps emblazoned with OYETOLA and 4+4, on Saturday morning stormed the Osun All Progressives Congress (APC) secretariat and warned party members belonging to The Osun Progressives (TOP), a caucus within the party, to vacate the party premises.

The thugs came into the party secretariat premises at about 10:40 am and started calling out and identifying members of the caucus.

After identifying them, they were then beaten and dragged away from the secretariat premises of the party.

The thugs and their leader, identified as Asiri Eniba, were accosted by party members who had come to submit their petitions and chased away from the secretariat premises.
