"Gist"

There was a tension on Wednesday afternoon during the Labour Party (LP) campaign in Oyo state, after an unidentified man was caught with a dagger in the mist of party supporters.

Photos and video of the suspect were shared on Twitter with many people questioning his mission at the campaign ground.

The man was dressed in a black suit and reportedly stood by the walkway where the LP flag bearer, Peter Obi was meant to pass on his arrival to the venue of the rally.

There are unverified claims on social media that the man may have been at the rally to attack Peter Obi, with many calling on the Labour Party presidential candidate to beef up his security.

Some of the party members could also be seen attempting to beat the suspect while other members of the public madero take him away as Obidients protested that he must not be let go.

Reactions:

@IbrahimAbuUmar1: “Na wa oooo. But why was Hausa the first language he started speaking to him? So what gave him the impression that the person must be Hausa? We really need to work on this profiling mentality if unity is truly what we seek. Though, thank God the suspect didn’t hatch his plans.”

@sopuruchukwu08: “Sir, pls if you notice,he knew the guy was hausa before he had to move closer. Kindly Watch the video again.”

@davsess: “Seems like he is an OPC/Afenifere local guard wey miss road,that’s why that man is shielding him. He is not supposed to be at that area at all aside from the DSS and police men.”

@Princess775860: “Listen to the voice that is asking the guy question and it sounded familiar. Your last statement made me cry. I won’t allow anything happen to my only hope for new Nigeria. May God never allow their evil plot to succeed. PO is our only hope!”

@vstunt6: “I think the man did the right thing. He was probably preventing jungle justice, which if it happened would have had a dirty stain on ObiDatti.”
