The Executive Chairman of Ido/Osi Local government, Hon Prince Tunde Aladegbami, has condemned an attack in Ifaki, Ekiti State on Thursday evening, which led to the death of a police officer.

In a statement signed by his Special Assistant on Media, Ojo Owoduni Femi Omoifaki on Thursday, Prince Aladegbami, said he was saddened by the incident.

The Chairman, who described the incident as “despicable” and the perpetrators as “cruel individuals,” said there can never be any valid grounds or rationale behind such violence that has left family without their loved ones, and one more community in grief and shock.

Prince Aladegbami expressed his condolence to the community on the live that was lost in the attack and agreed that “no stone will be left unturned until the perpetrators of this heinous act are caught and brought to justice.”

He said all must work together to ensure that this does not reoccur, urging residents and other stakeholder to “co-operate at various levels to increase the security of our communities.”

“I pray that the soul of the officer that we lost yesterday is granted places amongst the righteous ones. My prayers and support will continue to be extended to the affected family, and we will remain relentless until everyone who planned or carried out this attack faces the full wrath of the law,” the Chairman said.

October 25, 2025 A former governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, Mrs. Atinuke Oluremi Omolayo (née Okeya), who was duly screened and cleared by the party’s National Screening Committee, has demonstrated uncommon party loyalty by stepping down for Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji and actively participating in the delegate congress held today in her Eporo Ward, Emure Local Government Area.

…As APC Spokesperson Reiterates Official Candidate List Ahead of Publication The APC Integrity Caucus has moved to dismiss what it describes as a reckless and senseless rumour being circulated by a few individuals posing as party members. The gossip, they said, claims that the party “does not intend to submit” the name of Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

This is completely false,” the statement read. The caucus emphasized that the APC operates according to a clearly defined timetable, which specifies the dates for submissio...
