FLASH: Police, DSS Seal Off Ondo PDP Secretariat
The operatives of the Police and Directorate of State Security (DSS) have reportedly sealed off the State Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party in Akure, Ondo State.
There was a heavy presence of armed security personnel, which included the men of the state police command and their counterparts from the Directorate of State Security, at the entrance of the secretariat on Monday morning. Their vehicles were seen parked at the entrance of the secretariat.
As a result of fear of possible harassment, members of staff of the party did not enter into the secretariat to resume work.
It was gathered that the police alleged deployment in the place was not unconnected with the planned protest by the party youths, over the absence of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu from the state.
The protest was reportedly scheduled to take place today.
Efforts to get the state Police Public Relations Officer, Mrs Funmilayo Odunlami, on the matter were not successful, as she did not pick up at the time of filing this report.
