Pandemonium broke out on Saturday at Yebumot Hotel Ilorin, venue of the local government congress of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

The PDP delegates had converged as early as eight O’clock waiting for the commencement of the exercise when a factional Local Government Chairman of the party arrived and drew anger from the delegates who prevented him from gaining entrance.

This led to a free-for-all fight as some of the aides of the Chairman were beaten in the presence of the security operatives who only manned the gate to ensure that only the accredited delegates were allowed inside.

The effort of the Channels Television crew to record the beating further drew anger and annoyance from the PDP delegates as they pounced on both the cameraman and the reporter despite their explanations and showing of identity cards.

The nearly 50 thugs smashed the camera and tore the clothes of the crew while trying to force open the camera to remove the tape.

As the ugly incidents unfolded, the security operatives remained at the gate of the hotel just to ensure that only the accredited delegates gained entrance.
