The protest by
Members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria, took a different dimension today,
as the sect members stormed the National Assembly during plenary.
A number of policemen
were reported to have sustained injuries after the protesters overpowered the
security men at the entrance gate of the complex. Tensions mounted when a
profusely bleeding police officer was brought to the National Assembly clinic
by his colleagues. Unconfirmed reports
had it that the protesters had disarmed some policemen at the entrance gate and
used the opportunity to hurt others.
Some vehicles parked in the Assembly Complex were vandalized as the Shiites attempted to break into complex.
Our Correspondent,
Fidel Oseghale however reports that normalcy was immediately restored to the
Complex by re-enforcement teams of security personnel
