LAMIDI Apapa, factional Acting National Chairman of the opposition Labour Party (LP), was on Wednesday mobbed by party supporters at the Abuja Division Court of Appeal, the venue of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.
Upon his arrival, Apapa confronted Akin Osuntokun, Director-General of Peter Obi’s presidential campaign council, over the sitting arrangement.
The situation was brought under control after the intervention of Josephine Ekperobe, secretary of the presidential election petition court.
However, things became heated again after the court adjourned the proceedings to a later date.
The factional chairman had moved to address journalists when he was attacked.
Shielded by police officers, Apapa get to his car but the crowd kept trailing him.
Police officers within the premises eventually had to take him away for his safety.
