Suspected thugs broke into the
Atiku Abubakar’s Presidential Campaign office along Dandagoro road, Batagarawa
local government area of Katsina state, during the weekend, destroying vehicles
parked inside the premises.
The suspects reportedly attacked
supporters of the former vice-president whom they met in the office.
Jacob Dickson, spokesman of
Atiku’s campaign in the north-west geopolitical zone, said items worth
hundreds of millions of naira
were destroyed during the attack.
Aliyu Abbas, chairman of the
Atiku Care Foundation Chairman, said it was “barbaric for the thugs to have
attacked the office and innocent supporters who were celebrating there”.
A witness was quoted as saying
the “thugs” came in three tricycles, spy on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
members before launching the attack.
“We (supporters of Atiku) went to
the PDP northwest zonal rally that took place at the party’s secretariat in
Katsina and returned to celebrate the colourful outing in our befitting
campaign office refurbished in support of Atiku’s candidature ahead of the
forthcoming general elections in 2019 when the Armed bandits and Armed thugs
stormed and attacked us,” the witness reportedly said.
“Initially, they came in to spy
on us before going back to pick up their arms to launch the attack. They
smashed windscreens, mirrors and bodies of vehicles parked within the premises
of the campaign office with cutlasses, sticks and others they were carrying on
their hands.
“They damage our fence, brought
down our party flags erected round the fence and went away with some of the
party flags.
“We have reported the case at the
Divisional Police Office in Batagarawa and the DPO with his men have swung into
action immediately.”
