Basil Kenbo, a Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Constituency 4 of Southern Ijaw Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, has reportedly cheated death, Daily Post reports.
The man reportedly escaped death by the whiskers following the invasion of the constituency by armed civilians dressed in military uniforms.
Kenbo, who was reported to have engaged in heated words with the armed men, was nearly killed before the intervention of some youths of the constituency.
Investigations showed that hundreds of voters waiting to cast their votes ran for their dear lives while others protested against the use of civilians in military uniforms without a counter-operation by the Nigerian Army to fish out the impostors.
