Before the att@ck, the atmosphere at the venue had been peaceful, with supporters of Peter Obi and his running mate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, singing and dancing in anticipation of the commencement of the meeting.

According to TheCable, its correspondent, who was outside the venue, saw the attackers approaching from Kudirat Abiola Road in Oregun. The hoodlums were reportedly heard conversing in Yoruba, saying the NDC supporters were few and could easily be att@cked and overpowered. The correspondent also heard some of the att@ckers asking their superiors for permission to invade the venue with guns. The ensuing pandemonium forced motorists plying Kudirat Abiola Way to make U-turns or take alternative routes, while pedestrians ran for safety.
