According to the News Agency of Nigeria, violence broke out as voters scrambled for safety before the accreditation and election procedures had even started.
One of the accredited voters, who wished to remain anonymous, informed NAN that one of the candidate’s representatives had entered the ward, taken the accreditation and validation documents, and fled.
“One of the agents came here, snatched the validation and accreditation papers and fled the venue in his car.
“They chased him, but could not catch him. This caused the violence,” he said.
The security agents at the ward were unable to contain the violence and everyone fled the scene.
