The Nation gathered the meeting was called by a faction in the APC to dissolve the State Working Committee led by the embattled chairman, Alh. Ubah Nana, before the proceedings, was hijacked.
The thugs boasted nobody can remove Nana as they chased away journalists and others.
It took the quick intervention of the men of the Police Command to contain the situation.
Parties involved in the fracas were whisked away while the briefing was placed on hold.
