The All Progressives Congress(APC), Osun State has demanded for public apology from Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over killing of one Tajudeen Olalekan and his pregnant in-law, Kafayat Olalekan.
PDP through its chairman, Dr Akindele Adekunle had raised alarm that Governor Adegboyega Oyetola is planning to destabilise Osun state following the death of the two family members in Ede.
Meanwhile, one of the family members of the victims who is also a member of PDP, Rukayat Olalekan maintained that the CSO designate to Adeleke, CSP Omoyele and Osun State House of Assembly minority leader, Babajide Kofoworola masterminded the killings of the two members of the family.

He said, “There is an urgent need for PDP through its caretaker chairman, Dr Akindele Adekunle, to tender an unreserved apology to Governor Gboyega Oyetola for having falsely accused him and his administration of being the masterminds of the intra-PDP squabble that claimed the lives of two people including a pregnant woman few days ago.
