Gunmen invade APC chairman’s house

The intruders, believed to be either assassins or robbers, arrived at Oyegun’s home at about 1:30 am today, January 12, and reportedly made straight for his bedroom.

Unidentified gunmen have invaded the Abuja home of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman, John Oyegun, the party said in a statement.

The attack was confirmed by the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Lai Mohammed who said via the statement:

“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 added.
