Ado Ekiti - Political thugs suspected to be members of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State on Tuesday unleased terror
on witnesses who testified for the All Progressives Congress (APC)
before the National Assembly Election Petitions Tribunal., reports Punch.
The
thugs, who had waited outside the courtroom during proceedings, pounced
on the APC witnesses and supporters as they came out of the courtroom.
Many
supporters of the APC and those that came to witness proceedings fled
in different directions immediately they spotted the hoodlums.
Riot
policemen attached to the tribunal, however, managed to smuggle to the
witnesses out of the premises in a Golf car to an unknown location.
The
tribunal is hearing a petition filed by the APC senatorial candidate
for Ekiti Central, Gbenga Olofin, against the return of Senator Fatimat
Rasaki of the PDP.
