A police officer, who is a nursing mother, and two other people have been reportedly killed by thugs during the bye-election of the state house of assembly for the Ekiti East constituency (1).
The seat became vacant following the death of Juwa Adegbuyi who was representing the constituency in February. Several vehicles were also vandalized in the violence at different polling units.
Biodun Olujimi, senator representing Ekiti South, was said to have escaped by whiskers as the thugs went on a rampage in her polling units in Omuo Ekiti.
