In a different tweet, the actor made it clear that he remains undeterred by the incident, adding that his campaign trail will make appearances in other neighbourhoods in the area.

He wrote:

My team and I were attacked on Tuesday as we attempted to campaign at Iponri, Surulere. A member of my team was injured, but we are thankful the incident didn’t escalate past the level it was. The case has been reported at the Iponri police station.
I am not deterred by the incident. Instead I am more committed to seeing this through. We will pass through the wards in constituency 1 (Akinhanmi/Cole, Adeniran/ Ogunsanya, Iponri Housing Estate/ Eric Moore, Igbaja/Stadium, Shitta/ Ogunlana Drive, Yaba/Ojuelegba). See you outside!
