The shooting took place at the All Progressives Congress secretariat in Ajilosun, Ado-Ekiti, during a reception organised for the governorship candidate of the party, Dr. Kayode Fayemi.
It was learnt that the bullet came from the rifle of a mobile policeman who was among those deployed to ensure security.
Bamidele has been rushed to an unknown hospital for treatment, while the yet-to-be-identified second victim is feared dead.
