The thugs, in their numbers, were reported to have stormed the venue of the All Progressives Congress, APC, campaign rally in Eleme Local Government Area of the State on Tuesday, with the intention to cause chaos, but luck ran out for two of them, who were apprehended by the police.
Iringe-Koko said the suspects have been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department for discrete investigation. The police also displayed arms and ammunition recovered from the suspects by security personnel deployed at the venue of the APC campaign rally.
