Members of the outlawed Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) otherwise known as Shi’ites on Tuesday broke into the National Assembly premises destroying properties worth billions.
Television Nigerian gathered that the sect broke down the first gate and proceeded to the second, which serves as the main entrance to the complex.
A police officer and a personnel of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps NSCDC have received gunshot wounds and are in critical condition.
However, security operatives on ground repelled the protest with gunshots fired into the air to disperse the protesters.
They are protesting the continued detention of Ibrahim Elzakzaky, their leader.
The Shiites are currently burning some vehicles parked close to the gate while more security operatives are being deployed to the scene.
