Some hoodlums are roaming the streets of Nigeria, destroying ballot boxes at various polling stations in the country.
According to one Joey Akan, a journalist, these thugs visited Oba Elegushi and turned the place upside down.
In his attempt to save the situation, he received a number of slaps before being rescued.
“Thugs have destroyed ballot boxes and threw away the ballot papers at Oba Elegushi. I collected a couple of slaps for fighting back before I got pulled from the melee, into a house for my safety. Now I have to be smuggled out of the voting area because I have been marked,” he tweeted.
