Thug War In PDP Campaign Over Funds


Trouble started at the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) governorship campaign rally in Dukku Local Government Area of Gombe State, when cars belonging to the campaign team in the state, were destroyed by aggrieved political thugs hired to fill the campaign ground and were allegedly not paid for their “services.”

Punch reports that the party thugs resulted to violence when they realised that officials of the party were not willing to give them their “their welfare packages”.

In the ensuing confusion that followed, the wind screens of no fewer than 10 cars, belonging to the campaign team, were damaged by the rampaging thugs, who were wielding cutlasses, sticks, iron rods and many other dangerous weapons.



Other supporters at the rally reportedly fled to avoid being caught in the crisis.

An eyewitness, who craved anonymity for security reasons, said, “The boys (thugs) were promised N50, 000 for the occupants of each of the campaign buses, but none of the officials was willing to listen to them even as the occasion was winding up.”

Meanwhile the Chairman of the PDP in the State, Mr. Shuaibu Sabulu, confirmed he heard about the incident, but had yet to set his eyes on the damaged cars.

“I can’t confirm the incident because my eyes have not seen the cars and no one has brought his damaged car to me. As you heard it, that is the way I heard it. So, even if I tell you that it is a lie, then I’m correct. I’ve heard it but I have not seen it.

“We left immediately after the occasion. We have always advised our supporters to shun violence,” he concluded.
