Some unidentified political thugs in the early hours of Monday laid siege to the Ondo State House of Assembly, causing panic around the area.

The thugs numbering over 100 were sighted at the main gate of the Assembly complex with scores of their vehicles parked along the road leading to the complex.

It was gathered that the presence of the political thugs was not unconnected with the rancour within members of the state Assembly.

Report has it that some lawmakers were alleged to be the target of the thugs.

However, the men of the state police command were said to have prevented the hoodlums from entering into the complex.
