Members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Delta
State have been arrested by the police after a bloody clash that broke out
between supporters of the two factions at the party’s secretariat in Asaba.
A faction of the Party that is loyal to Olorogun O’Tega
Emerhor engaged another faction loyal to a Second Republic senator, Spanner
Okpozo in a free for all fight. Thugs armed with dangerous weapons including
guns invaded the secretariat and allegedly molested members of the state
disciplinary committee who were meeting to consider a report of anti-party
activities against some members.
There was exchange of gun-fire between thugs suspected to be
loyal to both factions, adding that heavily armed policemen were immediately
invited, who made some arrests.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Celestina
Kalu, said that the matter was still being investigated.
