Security operative smashed the
camera of a photo-journalist taking the photograph of the ailing delegate.
A National Conference delegate,
Abubakar Abdulmumuni, on Tuesday slumped and was rushed to an undisclosed
hospital in Abuja for medical attention.
Mr. Abdulmumuni slumped after the
plenary session of the Conference a few minutes after 6 p.m. while emerging
from the auditorium where it was holding.
It could not be immediately
ascertained which of the groups the delegate represents at the Confab, which is
holding at the National Judicial Institute, Airport Road, Abuja.
This brings to two the number of
delegates who have suffered that fate in the last one week.
Last week, a delegate of the Market
Women Associations, Ifeyinwa Ezenwa, slumped shortly after the Conference
resumed for the afternoon session.
Mrs. Ezenwa was trying to gain
entrance into the auditorium when she slumped and was immediately assisted by
some security operatives.
Mamman Misau, a delegate
representing Association of Retired Police Officers of Nigeria, ARPON, died
during the first week of the Conference.
Immediately he collapsed on Tuesday,
Mr. Abdulmumuni was assisted by security agents, including operatives of the
Department of State Security, DSS, and the National Security and Civil Defence
Corps, NSCDC, who alongside a doctor rushed him to an ambulance.
However, a female security operative
of the NSCDC engaged a photo-journalist, who was taking the photograph of the
delegate, in a fisticuff. In the process, the operative smashed the camera of
the photo-journalist.
