Multiple supporters of the Labour Party were attacked by hoodlums on their way to Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) for the party’s rally in Lagos.
It was earlier reported that tweeps had suspected an unusual activity on the Third Mainland Bridge where a faulty bus was allegedly planted to affect traffic and dissuade people from turning out for the event.
A video uploaded by Channels TV on Twitter has shown that supporters who had gone for the rally – which Peter Obi had appeared at – were attacked while making their way to TBS where the rally held.
Some victims had been attacked by machete welding ruffians, and they could be seen receiving medical treatment from health personnel on the scene.
