Hoodlums suspected to be members of pro-Biafra agitators invaded a political gathering and beat participants in Enugu West Senatorial district on Sunday.
While some people escaped, others who were not so fortunate were captured and asked to lie down in the mud, some women could be heard wailing in the background.
In the 4:50 minutes viral video, some cars and motorcycles were smashed by the hoodlums and some of them threatened there would be no election in “Biafra land” come 2023.
One of the hoodlums was heard saying “You want to bring Fulani into our place? We chased them away and you want to bring them back, PUNCH reports.
“What are you doing here? You are here for party politics like you do every four years. Which party?
“Don’t you like how we chased away the Fulanis? Why do you want to bring them back? You want to bring problems into Enugu West again.
“We have asked you people to stop these party campaigns you are doing on our land. You are all here for party campaigns. You are the ones destroying Enugu West. Thunder will fire you. Say yes sir!” Some of them were heard saying in the video.
When asked what should be their punishment if they tried to organise another political gathering, one of the men said, “kill me.”
WITHIN NIGERIA had reported that an office of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Awgu Local Government Area of the state was reportedly attacked and set ablaze by hoodlums earlier in the day.
