The Chairman of the Association of Local Governments of Nigeria, Rivers State chapter, Allwell Ihunda, narrowly escaped a fatal confrontation as protesting youths chased him along Moscow Road in Port Harcourt, the state capital earlier today.
Ihunda, who is the outgoing Chairman of Port Harcourt City Local Government Area, was on his way to the council secretariat with some aides and security details when the incident occurred.
VOP News gathered that he had alighted from his vehicle and tried to make his way into the council but met a group of youths who occupied the entrance.
Some of the youths alleged that they were being shot at by quote and unquote “Wike’s policemen”
