There was a mild drama at the main entrance to the Rivers State headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Port Harcourt on Tuesday morning when protesting members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) resumed their protest along with a pot of charms (Juju) and an herbalist.
The protesters, who also came with palm fronds, were on their second day of protest to demand a joint inspection of 2023 election materials at the INEC office.
They had on Monday attacked the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tonye Cole, and prevented him from accessing the office of the electoral umpire where he was scheduled to meet with the officials of the commission.
