SOME thugs assaulted Labour Party (LP) agents at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) collation centre for Alimosho at the Technical College, Ikotun in the Igando-Ikotun LCDA of Alimosho LGA on Sunday, February 26, 2023.
In a now-viral video shared by a popular Twitter influencer, Rinu Oduala, one of the collation officers identified as Funmi was seen pleading for help, alleging that APC thugs were beating officials at INEC’s collation centre in Ikotun.
“This is Funmi from Alimosho, we are at Ikotun local government and APC people have started beating us here, they have beaten most of our people, they are injuring us here please we need people to come to our rescue,” the lady in the viral video said.

INEC had declared 17 local governments as of 3:30 am on Monday, February 27, 2023, before the results collation was adjourned to 10: 00 am.
