Trouble erupted after 18 candidates were returned unopposed and a voice vote was called to choose the remaining candidates for the council poll, which is slated for July the 22, 2017.

They threw caution to the wind as upturned tables, threw away ballot boxes and other materials meant for the election at the Teslim Balogun Stadium.
The state electoral body, LASIEC, had in April released a timetable for the elections.
The local government areas are currently being run by sole administrators appointed by the state government.
