Thugs attack Atiku’s convoy in Borno, injure 74 persons

The convoy of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, was attacked by gunmen on Wednesday in Maiduguri, Borno State.

According to Blueprint Newspaper, at least 74 persons were hospitalised with over 100 vehicles vandalised at Ramat Square in Maiduguri where the former vice president went for a campaign rally.

The spokesman of the Atiku campaign organisation, Senator Dino Malaye, blamed the attack on the ruling party in Borno.

“They wanted to prevent us from holding the campaign, as we speak, 74 people were injured and hospitalised.

“Several vehicles were vandalised by APC thugs,” Malaye said.

The APC is yet to react to Melaye’s allegation as of the time of filing this report.
