Breaking News: Armed Gunmen Shoot Up ''INEC'' Office In Agege Lagos

 

The Cable reports that gunmen have attacked the INEC office in Agege, Lagos at about midnight on Saturday.
The gunmen, according to an INEC ad hoc staff, said the gunment injured some people and fired shots into the house of Kayode Opeifa, state commissioner for transportation.
One of Opeifa's vehicles was also vandalized during the attack.

“We were just right here in our unit at State High School when we heard sound of gunshots, some bullets even landed on our roof,” the staffer said. “The security man quickly shut the gates and briefed us that some guys who rode on bikes were the ones responsible.

“They first of all attacked the residence of the commissioner, which is opposite the school and vandalised one of his vehicles parked outside his compound. Then they moved to the secretariat of Agege local government and destroyed properties in the staff quarters before attacking the INEC office, which shares a fence with the secretariat but I can’t say if they succeeded in carting away electoral materials.”
