His statement reads in part:
"When we went on the streets to campaign, and our members were attacked, where was the DSS? When our member was killed, where was the DSS?"
The Labour Party spokesperson also references a statement of the chairman of the Lagos state parks and garage, Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo, where he was referring to one "Mama Chukwudi" but was alleged to be referring to a certain group of people.
