Phone Stolen in Ado Ekiti Attack on Sowore Team Allegedly Traced to Governor’s Lodge

A phone taken from a member of Omoyele Sowore’s team during a brutal attack in Ado Ekiti on Friday has been traced to the Governor’s Lodge in Ekiti State, according to a statement issued by the activist.

In a post on his X account, Sowore said one of the phones stolen during the attack on his team had now been located at the official residence of the Ekiti State governor. He described the incident as a violent assault that took place in the state capital.

The claim links the recovered device directly to the Governor’s Lodge, raising questions about the circumstances surrounding the attack and the subsequent movement of the stolen property. No further details about the attack, the number of people involved, or the identities of those responsible have been provided in the statement.

Sowore’s account presents the tracing of the phone as a significant development following the Friday incident. Independent verification of the claim has not yet been reported.

The matter remains the subject of public interest as it involves an alleged assault on a political activist’s team and a direct connection drawn to a state government facility.
