Suspected assassins attack APC chairman, John Oyegun's home in Abuja

Two suspected assassins today broke into the home of the Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, John Oyegun.

According to a statement by the party, the gunmen broke into Mr Oyegun's home in Abuja around 1.30am and went straight into his bedroom to ransack it. The men met Oyegun's wife as he was not at home when they came.

"The facts of the raid as available so far point to a sinister motive. For example, only Chief Oyegun's room was ransacked in the whole house. Common sense dictates that if the invaders were robbers, they would have ransacked the whole house in search of money and other valuables which they might have believed were in the residence. The invaders, 2 burly men, removed the window burglar bars to gain access to the residence from the back, and then made straight for the bedroom of our national chairman. Police security was in place at the residence when the incident happened." the statement read.
