Suspected political thugs, on Thursday, invaded a rally at Kudirat Abiola Way, Ikeja, Lagos, organised by the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC, supporters.
The rally was organised as part of the ongoing campaign for the presidential candidate of the NDC, Peter Obi, and governorship candidate, Funsho Doherty.
The rampaging thugs attacked supporters, with some sustaining injuries in the process. The hoodlums, armed with cutlasses, cudgels and stones, invaded the venue of the event, disrupted proceedings and sent participants scampering for safety. Though Obi was said not to be at the rally when the incident occurred, it was gathered that the thugs demanded money from the NDC supporters for holding the rally. When their demands were not met, the thugs resorted to attacking anyone on sight.
