The crowd trying to gain entry into the venue of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Convention had to be kept under control by security agents who had to be on their toes.
This comes as several delegates and touts were seen attempting to push their way into the APC convention’s Eagle Square Abuja venue, with security personnel straining to keep the situation under control.
The development led to the Police needing to use tear gas and tasers to bring the situation which was fast degenerating into a stampede under control.

In fact, the mob at the entrance through the Office of the Head of Service overcame the police officers on duty, forced open the gate, and a large number of people streamed into the event.
The Police later recovered from the incident and regained control of the gate for normal accreditation to continue.
The event is expected to kick off by 3.30 pm.
