A viral video circulating on social media has captured a tense moment involving popular businessman and nightlife personality Abu Abel in Abeokuta.
In the footage, the real estate mogul, dressed in a white kaftan, was seen walking through the MKO Abiola Stadium alongside a group of men believed to be part of his security detail.
The atmosphere suddenly grew heated as a crowd of visibly agitated youths confronted him, shouting as they advanced toward him.
Security operatives quickly formed a protective shield around Abel and moved him away from the scene, preventing any direct clash.
The incident has since stirred mixed reactions online, with many Nigerians debating the cause of the confrontation and what might have triggered the hostility.
Rival cultists reportedly pursued Abu Abel and nearly b3at him up at the MKO Abiola Sports Complex — thank God for the police officers at the scene. pic.twitter.com/dWcoemwgzn
