Imagine turning up to listen to your candidate, and running for safety instead.
CBI News notes that suspected thugs disrupted an NDC town hall for Peter Obi on Thursday at Classique Event Centre, Oregun, Lagos.
Vehicles were vandalised, panic spread, and one suspected attacker was tied up by the crowd before security arrived. Obi had not yet arrived.
This is not new. From Lagos to Kano, Nigerian elections have long been scarred by thuggery, voter intimidation and violence that silence ordinary people.
Every disrupted meeting steals a citizen’s right to gather, listen and choose freely.
No one yet knows who ordered the attack or why.
Police must investigate, prosecute sponsors, and protect rallies for all parties.
Democracy cannot thrive where fear replaces debate. Lagos deserves peaceful politics.
