Hoodlums attacked some four vehicles conveying newsmen as they exited from the campaign venue of Osun’s Gov. Gboyega Oyetola in Gbongan, Ayedaade Local Government Area of the state on Monday.
Oyetola had just finished addressing his supporters at Arapajo Area of Gbongan when the journalists came under attack.
The hoodlums wielded clubs, charms, stones, and axes with which they smashed the windows of the vehicles conveying the journalists injuring four of them.
Oyetola had kicked off his campaign at Orileowu in the local government area, where he addressed party supporters before moving to Gbongan.
Governorship election holds in Osun on July 16.
Meanwhile, Commissioner for Information, Mrs Funke Egbemode, took two of the journalists that were injured by the hoodlums to the hospital for treatment.
