An eyewitness report said the Eko Disco staff had gone into the premises of the nightclub on revenue collection duty after discovering that the nightclub was owing the company a huge sum of 5 million naira.
The report added that on sighting the Eko Disco staff and knowing their mission, club guard and some other workers in the club locked the gate on the men and the operational vehicle that conveyed them to the place.
All entreaties for the gate to be opened were said to have been rebuffed by the guard and his colleagues. The detained men had to call the Head Office in Marina from where the police were alerted before going to the nightclub to free the detained men.
