LAGOS APC PRIMARIES END IN VIOLENCE | Mr Olumide's Blog

There was a massive outbreak of violence at the Local Government chairmanship primaries of the All Progressive Congress (APC) on Saturday, leading to the abrupt ending of the exercise.

Pandemonium broke out in less than one hour after the Party’s electoral chairman, Senator Tokunbo Afikuyomi began to announce “consensus” candidates already endorsed by the party.

Opposing aspirants to some of those being called and their supporters will however not take it lightly as they went bersek.

Broken bottles, plastic chairs, woods, stones, bottle water and sachet water were some of the weapons used to chase VIP delegates and other supporters out of the Teslim Balogun Stadium Surulere, where the primaries were being held.
