Sources said Dogara’s house was attacked around 9:00 am.
Attempts by the police and other security operatives enforcing the curfew to disperse the rampaging youths by shooting into the air were not successful.
An eyewitnesses said, “They broke into the house of the former Speaker and attacked everyone, including Dogara’s brother, and (they) are currently moving anything they see. In the process, the invaders moved several items – tricycles, furniture, electronics, and other valuables – out of the house.”
