''Armed policemen drafted to the main gate of the National Assembly in Abuja have clashed with the journalists covering the #SayNoToSocialMediaBill protest and seized their cameras.
Trouble started when some protesters arrived at the venue with #FreeSowore #FreeBakare placards.
The police on sighting the group prevented them from advancing further and joining the other group led by Deji Adeyanju.
The police in the process swooped on the cameraman of ROOT TV, who was filming the harassment and altercation.
The police descended on the journalist and confiscated his camera.''
