Trouble almost erupted when Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi and governorship candidate the party in Lagos, Jimi Agbaje were retrained from entering the Alaba Trade Fair complex in Lagos to campaign. The fracas was to have happened between PDP supporters and some miscreants who were allegedly carrying out the instruction from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). They also said security agencies forced their convoy to wait in the sun for about two hours. When the CP’s order came, the convoy drove into the complex, while Obi and Agbaje immediately left their vehicles and walked through the place, shaking hands with citizens and greeting the crowd. In spite of their treatment at Trade Fair-ASPAMDA, the PDP flag-bearers received a rousing reception at the Alaba International Electronics Market.
