Everyone fled when the ballot boxes were taken away. The area is still populated by criminals.

Additionally, a well-known tweeter user named Samuel Otigba, who cast his ballot in the palace’s polling unit, wrote, “The vote outside the palace was scattered by area boys.” Jacked ballot boxes. sped away from the officer in charge.

“They also physically assaulted @EditiEffiong Because he was recording the entire incident.  they saw him and started to chase him, he tried to run into the palace, but they locked the gate. This is insane. Here, the police officers stood idly by and did nothing. They deleted the video from his phone. He revealed.

See more tweets below.

Weird thing is that I’ve voted here since 2011. Zero issues. No violence.

I overheard the boys planning to “scatter the thing” and tried to alert folks and authorities earlier. We were out hunting for tables for our PU when the fracas started.

Police are here now.

Guy, I’m fine. I can handle myself. I went to the home of the guy who took my phone and got it back.

Shirt is torn, but I can take a hit lol. Still voting. pic.twitter.com/SG4qDLmp4M
