Timothy added that he was queried by the lady about his mission at the assembly complex which he answered that he is a journalist but he was taken to an hidden place alongside one Toba Ajisafe who was said to be an online reporter.

Agbor and Toba explained that they were both manhandled at the unknown place while their phones and other gadgets were also spoilt beyond repair.

In his reaction, Chairman of Nigeria Union of Journalists(NUJ) in Osun State, Comrade Abiodun Olalere has condemned the act in strong , described it as unacceptable and barbaric.

Olalere added that the union will resist any attempt to restrict journalists from doing their duty in the State.
