There was a clash between the men of the Nigerian Police Force, NPF, and the supporters of former Anambra State Governor and presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, on Saturday.
According to reports, the police dispersed the supporters of the former governor who gathered at the Pastoral Centre in Abakaliki on Saturday morning for a solidarity march for the Labour Party presidential candidate.
Some of the supporters who spoke to newsmen disclosed that they were harassed and some of their members have been illegally detained by the police.
However, all efforts to reach the State Police Commissioner, Aliyu Garba, for comments have been futile.
