Two people and a responding police officer were severely injured as clash
broke out at the All Progressives Congress (APC) non-elective convention in
Abuja today.
During the chaos, which was captured on video by the
Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), chairs, bottles, and other items became
weapons, thrown by warring factions of the party.
The event had the goal of "amending the constitution of
the party to accord with the provisions of the Electoral Act," Tony Momoh,
an Edo State delegate told NTA. The party also acknowledged and celebrated the
introduction of its newest addition, the Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal.
The two victims were taken to the hospital. Policemen later restored order at the event.
