The convoy of Hajia Aishat Buhari, wife of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Candidate, Gen.
Muhammadu Buhari, was on Monday 16 March in Ilorin,
Kwara State capital, attacked by suspected Peoples
Democratic Party’s, PDP, thugs.
Briefing journalists on the incident, the state Chairman of
the APC, Hon. Ishola Balogun-Fulani, said no fewer than 10
vehicles were vandalised around the film house on Emir’s
road in the metropolis.
Hajia Buhari, who was in the state on Citizens Outreach
Town Hall Meeting, had earlier paid a courtesy visit on the
Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu Gambari, shortly on
arriving the state capital and was heading to Government
House to pay a similar visit to Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed
when the ugly incident happened.
The APC Chairman alleged that the plan to attack the
convoy was hatched and executed by a chieftain of the PDP
and his cohorts, adding that “we have it on good authority
that two of the PDP thugs had been apprehended by the
Police.”
Recalling that his party had repeatedly reported to the Police
and other security agencies about the plan by the PDP to
cause violence and mayhem before, during and after the
forthcoming general elections, Balogun-Fulani stressed the
need for the Police and other security agencies to be alert
and call the PDP to order so that the situation does not
degenerate.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr. Salihu Garba, confirmed
the incident but said only one vehicle was vandalised by
hoodlums. He did not confirm any arrest. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
