The election in Oshodi/Isolo Local Government Area, where Okota is located, was one of the areas that suffered violence during the elections in Lagos State.
In one of the incidents that occurred, thugs were caught on camera destroying ballot boxes and tearing ballot papers on election day.
In another video, people were seen running away from polling units, while gunshots could be heard in the background.
Oluomo had in January been stabbed by hoodlums, who invaded the Skypower Ground, Ikeja venue of an APC rally with guns, daggers and other dangerous weapons.
