A member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and an eligible voter has taken to social media to express his outrage after being assaulted by thugs while attempting to vote in Lagos state.

He claimed that goons stormed his voting station in Oba’s compound, Ijegun, Alimosho, and chased away all non-Yoruba voters.

He revealed that despite showing them his APC membership certificate, they still pounced on him.

He stated that he held his ground and attempted to fight them alone while others fled, but they injured him.

The APC member posted a picture of his severely injured head and stated that police officers were observing him while he was being beaten.

He added that after the aggressive altercation, he was still able to vote.

He wrote;

“Yoruba men came to the PU at oba’s compound, Ijegun, Alimosho and chased all non Yorubas away. My APC membership card couldn’t save me. They messed up my head and leg. Men of NPF were watching the fight.
All my cards are always in my wallet. All the half-men scrammed. I stood my ground, fought, got injured, but still voted!”

A Yoruba deity known as ‘Ara Orun’ (People of Heaven) has been captured casting his vote at a polling unit in Lagos state while donned in his complete costume.

In other news, a Nigerian lady, simply identified as Uloma, has said that she will not support her husband if he has financial troubles.

The lady stated this while responding to a tweet asking what women would do if their husbands went broke and couldn’t afford to pay their rent.

“I have a question for my girls. Say your husband is struggling financially and rent is due. Are you guys paying it or do you guys expect him to find a solution on his own?” The tweet read.

Reacting, Uloma stated that it’s a man’s sole responsibility to support the family, while a woman’s responsibility is to care for the house.

She averred that when a woman helps a man with his bills because he’s broke, she is taking away his masculinity.

“He’s a man and his duty is to provide while yours is to make the home. When you provide, you’re stripping him of his manhood and turning him into a woman. So let him figure it out on his own. It’s best you become homeless than you pay the rent. That’s how the patriarchy works.” She wrote.

She urged everyone to join her in expressing gratitude for what transpired, saying that it was almost like a gift in disguise.

“Help me praise the lord, the guy my dads people brought for me to marry by force has scammed them of business money. What God cannot do doesn’t exist fr.”
