Embattled Speaker of the Plateau State House of Assembly, Abok Ayuba, and some members of his group have been arrested within the vicinity of the State Assembly in Jos, Njenje Media News reports.
The State Police Commissioner, Edward Egbuka and some key officials of the different security outfits in the State ushered them into Hilux vans at about 3.15 pm after laying siege in the State Assembly since dawn.
Abok was whisked away through the back gate of the State Assembly shortly after security agents bombarded the peaceful protestors and journalists with tear gas and sporadic gunshots to disperse them.
