Famous actress and Lagos State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) deputy governorship candidate, Funke Akindele has been attacked by thugs.

Lagos PDP spokesperson, Hakeem Amode revealed that:

“Usually when we go to the market, Funke Akindele goes to the market to speak with the market women, and we know it is our right to be able to talk freely, a campaign to anybody.”

“The local government chairperson came into the market, used her car to block and brought a bunch of thugs to attack us in Kosofe local government, which is very, very sad; it is unbelievable we are not allowed to speak to people freely.”

“Under the new electoral act, we are free to campaign anywhere; this is Lagos, where we should be able to talk to everybody without intimidation or discrimination. That should not even happen.”
