“This directive followed the unfortunate incident that happened during the colloquium held to mark the 60th anniversary of the Midwest Referendum, where some journalists, who claimed to be the media crew of the Deputy Governor, attempted to force their way into the hall where the Governor and other dignitaries were already seated.
