A video clip that captured moments a stakeholders’ meeting of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, turned violent in Abuja has emerged online.
It was learnt that trouble began when stakeholders of the
party, including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Senator, Ireti Kingibe met
ahead of the distribution of materials for the senatorial primary held on
Saturday.
It was gathered that the Chairman of the election committee,
Mr. Abubakar Adams Chika, and the secretary, Mr. David Godwin had summoned the
stakeholders to the Secretariat of the FCT chapter of the party to explain the
process for the exercise.
The peaceful meeting was reportedly disrupted when one
Tijani Mubarak and four others allegedly invaded the venue with sticks.
Tijani immediately confronted the committee chairman for
declining to honour an invite for a private discussion, leading to a heated
exchange as captured in the video.
Tijani was allegedly against the election of Ireti as the
party’s candidate for the FCT senatorial election.
Ireti has, however, been declared the winner of the primary
election.
