Protests over fuel, naira scarcity hamper Obi’s parley in Ibadan

NAN reports that there were pockets of protests by some aggrieved youths across the city over the non-availability of the new naira notes and fuel, which led to loss of lives and property.

Many supporters of Obi, who had thronged the venue of the forum since 8.00 a.m, went home disappointed, having sat for hours without seeing the presidential candidate due to security reasons.

Obi, whose chopper reportedly landed at the Obafemi Awolowo Stadium in Ibadan in the afternoon, was prevented from featuring in the programme by his campaign Director-General, Mr Akin Osuntokun, for security reasons.
