A Nigerian journalist identified as Udede Jim-Opiki, and an unidentified policeman were dispossessed of their phones and undisclosed cash at the ongoing PDP National Convention in Port Harcourt, Rivers state
Jim narrated, “At the entrance of the venue at that odd moment, security men could not organize the delegates and other interested participants in an orderly manner.
“They closed the gate and were letting in only co-security personnel and their principals. Meanwhile, the crowd was growing because more persons were coming.
“Soon, it became a pushing game where the more you pushed, the closer you got to the entrance and maybe with s little help, you could go inside.
“Boy, it was a struggle and even shoes got cut. Sweating and smelling bodies got too close and the evil-minded among them went to work.
“Ironically, even a policeman’s phone was also stolen in the mix. He was heard shouting Oh, my phone, my phone ooo.”
