At least 74 persons have so far been hospitalised while about 10 vehicles were vandalised following the attack on the PDP's presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar on Wednesday in Maiduguri, the Borno capital.
It was gathered that the attack occurred on Wednesday afternoon.
It was also gathered that the thugs were allegedly carrying flags of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC while throwing stones and other dangerous objects at vehicles on the convoy in Maiduguri.
PDP Spokesperson, Dino Melaye disclosed this during the party’s rally in Maiduguri, saying that the act was to try to stop their campaign in the state by deploying thugs to attack them.
“They deployed their thugs to attack our convoys with stones, sticks, and machetes as we left the Shehu’s Palace to come to the Ramat Square, all in an attempt to stop our rally.”
“But we want to assure them that nobody can stop us.
