------2003, Dr. Ayo Daramola, a PDP
gubernatorial aspirant in Ekiti State, and a
consultant on Social Protection and HIV/AIDS to
the World Bank Country Office in Abuja was
murdered in his bedroom at his hometown, Ijan-
Ekiti. A nutritionist who recently joined the race,
his death is linked to the intra-party crisis, which
has thrown up political enemies after the death of
the third term agenda in the state. He was
stabbed, shot and hacked to death.
------ Engineer Funso Williams, PDP
gubernatorial aspirant in Lagos State and
chairman, Board of Directors of Nigeria Maritime
Authority (NMA) was murdered on July 27, 2006.
Police are still investigating this assassination.
Forensic experts were invited from London to
assist them. The police arrested PDP
gubernatorial aspirants in the state and some
members of the NMA board. They were held for
about three weeks.
-------- On July 16, 2005 unknown gunmen
killed Alhaji Lateef (alias Lati Osogbo) a close
associate of the strongman of Ibadan politics,
Alhaji Lamidi Adebibu, in Ibadan.
--------- Alhaji Sulaimon Olajokun, a Lagos-
based businessman and one of the 'financiers' of
the group, Oranmiyan was murdered on his way
to Lagos from Ile-Ife Osun State, in a Sports
Utility Vehicle (SUV) on May 15, 2005. He was a
chieftain of the Alliance for Democracy (AD).
--------- On December 23, 2001, Minister of
Justice and Attorney General of the
Federation, Chief Bola Ige, was killed inside his
bedroom at Ibadan, Oyo State. The police
declared one Olugbenga Adebayo, ( a.k.a. Fryo)
wanted in connection with the murder. The trial of
suspects took many twists and turns; several
judges resigned from the case, and Ige's wife died
after one of the futile hearings to trace the killers.
The Oyo government withdrew the case from the
court in 2004.
---------- Mrs. Emily Omope (a.k.a . Thatcher),
an AD member, died on March 3, 2003 at the UCH
Ibadan after an acid attack in December last year
by unknown persons.
--------- Unknown assailants in Lagos

Assembly, was killed in front of the Moore police
station, Ile-Ife, Osun State.
--------- Ahmed Sardauna, chairman of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State
also fell to the assassin’s bullet in 2003

Ayo Daramola PDP, 2006
Before his death he was the "peoples" choice to upseat incumbent Ayo Fayose. Obj had wanted him and also Ekiti ppl against Gov Ayo Fayose (still PDP). He was murdered in cold blood with fingers pointing to Gov Fayose of PDP

Engr Funso Williams, PDP 2006

Before his death, he was the leading candidate to clinch PÐP's ticket in the 2007 Lagos Guber election. There was bitter war within the PDP among SeÑator Obanikoro, Sen Seye Ogunlewe and Williams over the PDP ticket. Williams was murdered in his Ikoyi home and the Family suspected the PDP contenders. The police arrested and detained the major PDP aspirants and even took their statements.his family later defected to Action Congress. It was a PDP affair.



Chief Bola Ige AÐ, 2001

The Major suspect was Iyiola Omisore of PDP though I believe that it was one of Ige's politiÇal opponent or Omi's supporters Þhat murdered him.

Às for others, Ì can't say

Yorubas can not practice simple peaceful democracy.
It is either they murder their opponent or use rice and odorless fufu to buy hungry voters

not peculiar to yorubas!!!!
Dikibo and Marshall harry were murdered in 2001. All fingers pointed to Gov Peter Odili (PDP). There used to be widespread politically motivated assassination across the contry btw 2003 to 2010. In 2011 the ANPP Governorship Candidate in Borno State was murdered by suspected Assassins and politically motivated befor ANPP handed her flag to Kashim Shetima

Another question is "Who Killed Otunba Dipo Dina"? He was the AC candidate in Ogun State during the 2007 poll. All fingers pÒinted to Gbenga Daniel

OP na my dog kill dem, oya come arrest bingo...

But the fact remains that there have been more politically motivated assassinations around election time in the SW than in any other region. There is also the historical cases of rampant anarchy by political thugs on harmless voters in the southwest than in any region. FACT!

Is Harry Marshal a yoruba ?

Is Dikkibo a yoruba ?

You are a world class fishbrain.

Not only are assassinations of political opponents rampant alongside general thuggery and intimidation in the SW political sphere there is also the uncomfortable and bitter coincidence of ritual killings and abductions during elections.

Osun and Ekiti elections saw a spike in Ritual killings and abductions in cities across the SW.

Even the current Governor elect, AregbeRascal believed charms and amulets (usually made from human parts) should accompany any would be voter to the polls.

The SW polity is the biggest farce and hypocrite in Nigeria.

Rascals!

The Obasanjo Administration was by far the most bloody period in Nigeria with Politicians having their life expectancy reduced within an election year.

Obasanjo was a thug and his mannerism and utterances could not betray his color.

Agbereo People claiming sophistication.

bros you can say that the SE is relatively not wartorn during election but since 2003, election in Rivers State is like war! Its only now that things are getting beta. Ask my fellow Rivers citizens what gave rise to armed stuggle and cultism. See I as a Rivers indigen I'm very afraid of running for office in my state because its usually bloody-that doesn't mean I won't run. I don't want to go in details but politicking in Rivers(as case study) is very bloody.. Ìt i§ eveÑ worse than SW.. Though getting better as ppl are becoming more polÍtically aware

The Problem started with Odili who was an OBJ right hand man. But at least in Rivers there is a reason to stick your neck out because of the oil money flowing in but consider Osun or Ekiti. What is in those rustic slum townish states that they are killing themselves over for sef?

I can stick my neck out and say with full confidence that if any SW state had the kind of Money like Rivers, Delta or Akwa Ibom, there would have been a full blown war going on.

Rascals

this is the one reason obasanjo 8yrs in govt. was a throwback to the dark ages.
the return of the ape.

Op the answer to ur question is PDP.

danot1030: Op the answer to ur question is PDP.

No. The answer is the rascality and agbereo tendencies of SW people

Their hypocrisy is absurd.

The list contains more murders of yoruba politicians that happened during electioneering campaign for office in SW states

eposho: this is the one reason obasanjo 8yrs in govt. was a throwback to the dark ages.

you are right. Things was so bad under obj that in 2007 he publicly declared in Lagos that "PDP will Capture Lagos" "it is a DÓ-or-Die affaÍr".

MzJackBaueress: who tell you? Abi you want make I open that chapter?

Yes, open d cha¶ter.

Did anyone notice how the op deviated from his original post to indirectly bash the sw? I'm not Yoruba, but i sure believe that political thuggery is not exclusive to the sw. It could be a bit more there most likely because of how sophisticated they are politically and what politics means to them.

and I would say that it was a calculated attempt by the Tinubu and his AD machinery to control d polity of southwest unopposed. Tinubu killed them all knowing fully well dat finger will b pointed to the party at the center. these are things that can not b revealed to mere flesh.

Where is the OP?

Funsho WIlliams, Daramola, Bola Ige, Harry Marshalls, Dikibo, Elewe-Omo murders were all linked to PDP

BishopMagic:

Can you tell us about Chimere Ikoku, Barnabas Igwe, Victor Nwankwo, Theodore Agwatu, Amaka Igwe, Uche Ogbonnaya and others

even in the early 60s, there was "operation wetie" in the South West.

u are right bro.but no justification for murdering of innocent human being as witness in d SW were one man wants to remain an emperor and turns d zone to his properties.

eposho: this is the one reason obasanjo 8yrs in govt. was a throwback to the dark ages.

in the 80s,buhari was d worst thing dat happened to nigeria.in mid 80s and early 90s,IBB was d worst event in nigeria history.in mid 90s abacha was a toxic waste to nigeria.
in late 90s and 2000s,OBJ and tinubu were the worst occurrence in nigeria's history

danot1030: Op the answer to ur question is PDP.

no,the answer is ACN & CPC which metamophose into APC.
they are still busy committing murder as witness during post election era in 2011
