Suspected hoodlums on Saturday shot sporadically as they attacked the vehicle of Desmond Elliot at Akerele junction, Surulere, Lagos. Desmond is a Lagos State House of Assembly candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The street boys wanted the actor to stop and give them money. But the lawmaker decided to keep going. His vehicle was attacked and the windshield broken. Supporters of Mr Elliot at a nearby polling unit, PU20, Ward 7, Surulere, quickly called in reinforcement to rescue the lawmaker.
Immediately he was rescued, thugs shot sporadically into the air, creating an even more tense atmosphere. In a quick response, however, police officers attached to the nearby polling unit called in armed reinforcement who arrived to calm the situation.
