The National Vice-President, External, National Association of Nigerian Students, was reportedly arrested on the order of the governor for addressing the crowd during Buhari campaign in the state.
The APC state Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, released a statement saying,
“Ogunkuade was arrested for listing out challenges facing the Nigerian students, saying the present government was not capable of addressing the hardships being faced by the students in accessing quality education.
“He said to the applause of hundreds of students in attendance that Buhari presented a better hope for students in their educational pursuits.
“The thugs trailed Ogunkuade to Ikogosi-Ekiti just 24 hours after he spoke, where he and other students were seriously injured after they were attacked with machet and other dangerous weapons.
“After these students were attacked at Ikogosi, they ran to Efon-Alaye Police Station to report the matter. To our surprise, the police detained them before they were transferred to Aramoko-Ekiti Police Station.
