The chairman of Ogbia Local Government Area, Ebinyo Turner and member representing Ogbia Constituency 3 in the State House of Assembly, Gibson Munalayefa, were arrested over alleged possession of firearms.
It was gathered that some officers of the Nigerian Army arrested the duo as they were approaching the venue of the collation of governorship results in the local government area.
An eyewitness said the army officers stopped the car for a search as they were driving to the collation centre and discovered the arms inside the car.
It is not clear what types of arms they had in the car as the Nigerian Army is yet to make a statement on the arrest.
