Chioma Akpotha said:
“They destroyed my side mirror, I don’t even know the extent of the damage but they were with knives.
“I ran for my life. What happened to the free and fair election they promised us? Nothing is free and fair.”
Meanwhile, Nigerian actor-turned-politician Desmond Elliot has condemned the attack on his political opponent, Olumide Oworu.
Elliot, who is a lawmaker representing Surulere 1 in the Lagos House of Assembly, is contesting for re-election on Saturday, March 18.
One of his opponents from the Labour Party, Olumide Oworu, is one of the favourites in the poll.
However, Oworu was reportedly attacked by suspected thugs at a campaign in the Iponri area of Lagos state recently.
In response to the attack, Desmond Elliot said he would never be a party to any move that seeks to undermine the peaceful coexistence in Lagos.
