The Police in Ebonyi State on Saturday violently dispersed residents who gathered in Abakaliki, the State capital to stage a one-million-man match in support of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
The supporters, who were teargassed by the police, however, quickly regrouped in another part of the city and continued with their march.
The ‘Obidient Movement’, as the supporters are popularly called, had gathered at the Pastoral Centre, Abakaliki for the march when police stormed the area and dispersed them with teargas.
The incident caused heavy vehicular traffic on the popular Old Enugu road in the capital city on Saturday morning.
