Security agencies in Ondo State have sealed the State Secretariat of the Peoples Democratic Party in Akure, the state capital.

The protest was reportedly scheduled to take place today (Monday)

The team that carried out the operation were said to have included men of the state police command and their counterparts from the Directorate of State Security.
