Attack On PDP Campaign Vehicles At Bauchi Road, Jos by watered(op): 6:24pm On Jan 10, 2015
At about the hours of 15:00hrs two campaign vehicles of PDP with the bold pictures of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan were attacked and burnt along Bauchi Road in Jos today.

The inferno sent shivers down the spines of traders and marketers along that axis which led to early closure of business activities along that axis.

As at this moment, everything is calm as residents are moving about their daily business but shops are already under lock and key since its already 18:00hrs when most shops close for business activities.

Let's SHUN VIOLENCE of any sort.

Some angry youth on Saturday attacked and set fire on a campaign bus branded with President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign posters at Zololo junction, Bauchi road in Jos, Jos north Local Government area of Plateau state.

The bus was on fire at the time of filling this report. However, witnesses said the driver of the bus escaped unhurt.

It is not clear what led to the attack. Police could not be immediately reached for comments.

A witness whose car was also torched by the rampaging mob, said another Peoples Democratic Party, PDP-branded car was
also set alight.

The source, who only identified herself as Mrs. Rose, told PREMIUM TIMES that her Honda car was also smashed by the protesting youth.

She said the road leading to the area was blocked by the rampaging youth, as they bashed other vehicles plying the route.

According to her, the incident occurred in the presence of members of the Special Taskforce on Jos crisis STF, who could not help stop the action of the youth.

The incident has generated tension within the state capital Jos, as residents rushed home for safety.

The attack occurred as PDP supporters in the state converged at the Hiapang Airport to receive the gubernatorial candidate of the party, Gyang Pwajok, who was returning from Lagos
after receiving his flag last Thursday

Buhari warn your illiterate supporters to allow PDP to campaign freely in the north as PDP allows APC to campaign freely in their strongholds. Be warned

Very correct info. If you want pix, check out Musadiqz on twitter.
Irrespective of party affiliations, it seems Buhari has the whole North on lockdown. Even PDP are campaigning for Buhari.

JONATHAN: The Only Nigeria President Without
Accurate ANSWERS! Ask Jonathan about
Power failure, he would say Nigerians are not
patient enough. Ask Jonathan about stolen
crude oil, he would say the pirates are invisible.

Ask Jonathan about the missing $20 Billion, he
would say maybe Sanusi made mistake.

Ask Jonathan about Nigeria unemployment rate, he would say Nigeria youths should be blamed.

Ask Jonathan about Sure P mismanagement,
he would say State governments are economical with the truth. Ask Jonathan about #117 Billion 2nd Niger Bridge, he would say the opposition are noise makers.

Ask Jonathan about Chibok Girls, he would say their where about is unknown.

Ask Jonathan about those behind insurgency, he would tell you to ask the opposition party.

Now ask him about 2015 election, he would say he is the best candidate that has answers to Nigeria problems.

Where is the best in Clueless Goodluck Ebele Jonathan?

He is a man of flippancy character. Say No to Jonathan, vote him out of Aso Rock.

So the agrieved PDP folks have now resorted to setting PDP vehicles ablaze. This is what you get when GEJ and Patience intervene unfairly in the primaries.

It is insulting for Jonathan to even think of coming back. Going to campaign in places where almost every family has lost a member to insecurity since 2011 is even more insulting.
I think the youths were angered beyond their boiling point.
Re: Attack On PDP Campaign Vehicles At Bauchi Road, Jos by vedaxcool(m): 8:31pm On Jan 10, 2015
This violence is condemnable, until we are sure on who or what is carrying out this violence, we will have to once again restate, Jonathan remains a failure who failing in the area of securing life and property is now beginning to haunt him!

Vote GMB 2015 so that Jonathan can live the serious task of governance to grown ups

Re: Attack On PDP Campaign Vehicles At Bauchi Road, Jos by Firefire(m): 8:42pm On Jan 10, 2015
This is a barbaric act and should be condemned by all peace lover's.

No region have monopoly of violence.

A barbaric action begets a barbaric response. It is barbaric of GEJ to ignore deaths in these places for 6 years.
