Aggrieved supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) allegedly loyal to Senator Magnus Abe as well as those loyal to former Governor Rotimi Amaechi on Friday clashed with security operatives at the Rivers State High Court.
The chaos started when some of them reportedly came to the court to secure an injunction to stop the Local Government Congress billed to hold on Saturday, May 12, 2018, but met the court under lock and key.
The situation then resulted in tension as some angry youths forced the gate open.
Security agents were later seen trying to take charge of the rowdy situation with gunshots being fired in the air.
Both parties are currently trading blames over the situation as it appears uncertainty hangs over the APC Local Government Congress slated for Saturday.
