Breaking: Four Injured As Political Thugs Attacks Labour Party Governorship Candidate

Published

On March 10, suspected political thugs ambushed a Labour Party campaign convoy for governor in Kaduna state led by Hon. Jonathan Asake in Gidan Waya in the local government area of Jema’a.

The incident occurred while the campaign caravan was traveling through Gidan Waya during Friday Muslim prayers on its route to Godogodo and other towns as the campaign team was touring the local government, according to James Swam, spokesman for the Labour Party candidate.

According to Channels Television, the attack started when the first three trucks in the convoy passed through the old tires that had been deployed to mark the road.

Thugs in the area started throwing stones, big sticks and other harmful objects at the long convoy, before the timely intervention of the security personnel attached to the candidate intervened.

Two boys and two girls were injured during the attack.
