“The protesters almost turned the event bloody. They stormed the venue but were not allowed entry, they inflict serious injury on one of the officers.”

“The officers were not on the defensive while trying to disperse the protesters, so they never prepared for the attack.”

“The other officers later shot into the air to disperse the protesters who were adamant even after the intervention of Obasanjo.”
