A trending video has shown the moment the chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ward 1 of the Akoko North-West Local Government Area of Ondo State, Olumide Awolumate, popularly known as Cuba, smashed a plastic chair on the head of the state’s Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Olubunmi Osadahun.

The altercation purportedly arose from a dispute over the distribution of palliatives in the area.

The development occurred at the residence of the APC ward chairman.

A video that has since gone viral shows Awolumate resorting to the use of a plastic chair to strike the commissioner during the fisticuffs.

After the altercation, a big bump can be seen on the temple of the honourable commissioner.

Narrating his side of the story, the APC ward chairman said: “I was assaulted in my house by the power-drunk Commissioner for Women Affairs with her son in the presence of a police officer.

“I was in my house playing Ludo. All of a sudden, she came in the company of her son, another man, and a police officer. When they got to me, the police officer said I was needed at the station at Oke-Agbe. Before I could respond, the Commissioner’s son jumped at me and started fighting me. He even tore my clothes.

“His mother (the commissioner) joined him to beat me. All this happened in the presence of the police officer that they came with.”

The commissioner, however, could not be reached for her version of the incident. She was reportedly admitted and was receiving treatment in an undisclosed hospital.
