Members of Anambra Umuada, an association of first daughters, were stopped from launching an attack on a woman whose s*x tape with a married man recently went viral.
In a video circulated on Facebook, the Umuada were seen brandishing symbolic items at the marketplace where the woman, at the centre of the controversy, conducts her business.
The display appeared to be a traditional form of protest or intended public shaming.
Their actions, however, were quickly halted by local villagers who objected to the incursion. The villagers insisted that the Umuada, who hail from a different community, could not impose sanctions or cause disruption in another village without following proper procedures.
They were instructed to first send a formal notice to the village authorities declaring their intention. Only after the matter is deliberated upon by the local leadership would a decision be communicated, they were told.
