Ekiti State House of Assembly has been shut over a rumoured planned invasion by some unidentified thugs.
Armed policemen were stationed at strategic locations in the House to prevent the purported invasion and break down of law and order.
Staff of the Assembly were also sighted trooping out of their offices to their respective homes.
Some of the workers, who spoke with newsmen but wished to be kept anonymous, explained that there was an order from the State Police Headquarters that workers should vacate the assembly in the interest of peace.
