According to an eyewitness  The recent altercation between supporters of Senatorial Candidate of APGA, Hon. Dozie Nwankwo and the Candidate of PDP for Anambra Central Senatorial District, Sen. Uche Ekwunife.  started when Dozie Nwankwo came earlier and waited to enter the arena for Igu Aro, while waiting, the organizers announced that no politician will be allowed into the main arena with political flags. Dozie Nwankwo and his supporters agreed and waited patiently for them to be recognized.
While they were waiting, Uche Ekwunife and her supporters enter the main gate and matched to the arena with numerous PDP flags and Umbrellas, they were probably oblivious of the standing order by the organizers who earlier warned that politicians will not be allowed to enter the arena with Party flags. “In a quick reaction, Dozie Nwankwo supporters seeing that Uche Ekwunife and her people had gained entrance rose in anger and matched forward to the arena which made everything chaotic, the atmosphere was charged which sparked up aggression that led to violence and open fight.
