Loud explosions Sunday blasted the security gate of a residential property
which also serves as a clinic of the wife of the former Secretary to the Edo
State Government, Pastor Osagie Ize Iyamu, now a chieftain of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP.
The incident occurred at No 16, Dennis Osadebay Avenue, a few metres away
from one of the gates leading to Government House, Benin.
The Nation reports that Pastor Iyamu has accused the Governor, Adams
Oshiomhole of threatening his life and masterminding the attack on his wife’s
clinic.
However, no life was lost as the only security guard on duty at the gate
narrowly escaped death by whiskers.
He was said to be patrolling the premises which houses blocks of flats when
the unidentified suspects threw in the said explosive device.
Political atmosphere in the state has remained tensed since the battle for
supremacy began at the Edo Assembly.
