The women mainly APC members who took to the streets of the University town around 10:15 am Friday with police escorts were led by Stephene Ogboru, a younger sister to the APC governorship candidate who was defeated by incumbent Governor, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa.

The protesters alleged malpractices during the exercise and manipulation of the results announced by INEC, calling for outright cancellation and rerun of the governorship election.
