Police operatives reportedly arrested Obasa’s supporters for loitering near the assembly complex.
Speaking through the Police van’s window shutters, the supporters claimed to be members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) from Agege Constituency.
The men who created a scene while singing “On Your Mandate” said they were arrested without any explanation, News Central TV reports.
They explained that they were in the assembly to visit Obasa.
“We came down to the assembly to visit Obasa, and they arrested us,” one man said. “A tangible reason has not been given for apprehending us. We are about 20 people from Orile Agege. We are APC youths.”
