The Chief Security Officer of the complex, Mr. Douglas, told hismaj.blogspot.com.ng that the youths locked the gates by 6.45am and beat up several persons. hismaj.blogspot.com.ng gathered that the move by the thugs was to forestall the court from sitting so that it would not grant an injunction sought by Senator Magnus Abe to stop the local government congress of the APC slated for Saturday.
