Many police officers blockaded the scene of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally, near the Ekiti Government House on Wednesday morning.
Recordings of the occurrence demonstrated the police utilizing poisonous gas to scatter the PDP supporters, including the Ekiti senator, Ayodele Fayose, who was likewise influenced by the police activity.
"This can't occur in any cultivated society where a senator with full resistance can be so mishandled freely," Governor Emmanuel told columnists in Uyo, Akwa Ibom state, Wednesday night, as indicated by an announcement issued by the Government House, Uyo.
"It is a disgrace for the entire nation, it is a disgrace to every one of us."
Mr Emmanuel is the national facilitator of the PDP's group for the Ekiti governorship decision which holds Saturday.
Despite the fact that Governor Fayose isn't a competitor in the decision, his appointee, Olusola Eleka, is.
Mr Eleka is the hopeful of the representing PDP in the state. His real adversary is Kayode Fayemi of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who was, until fourteen days prior, the clergyman of strong minerals.
The Akwa Ibom representative, Mr Emmanuel, spoke to law implementation offices to comply with the law.
He charged the electorate in Ekiti not to be scared by what was happening in the state.
The PDP is occupied with winning the race in a free and reasonable challenge, he said.
"It isn't about Fayose or Ekiti State, it is about each one of us. On the off chance that it can happen to Fayose, it implies it can transpire. We ought not simply take a gander at Fayose today, we ought not simply take a gander at Ekiti State, let us take a gander at Nigeria.
"Races will travel every which way, countenances will go back and forth yet Nigeria will remain. Let us not accomplish something that will truly cut down this nation," Mr Emmanuel said.
The police have anyway said that it kept the PDP rally from occurring with a specific end goal to prevent a conflict between the gathering and the APC.
