8 Feared Dead As APC, PDP Clash In Kaduna by Islie(op): 3:57pm On Feb 04, 2015

Eight supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State were feared dead, following the outbreak of violent clash with supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna.

Supporters of PDP had been alleged to be defacing posters of the presidential candidate of APC, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari and that of its governorship candidate, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai.

It was gathered that while some supporters of APC accused the other party of the vandalism, it was hell let loose, as supporters of PDP allegedly swooped on their APC counterparts, with eight said to have feared dead.

In a statement made available to the Nigerian Tribune and signed by the spokesperson of el-Rufai campaign organisation, Samuel Aruwan, in Kaduna, the APC confirmed the death of eight of their members, with many others said to have sustained injuries.

The statement said the party suspended its campaign tour of Zone 2, which is Kaduna Central, because of the incident.

But, in a swift reaction, Governor Yero said it was APC supporters who attacked his campaign team at Bakin Ruwa area of Igabi Local Government Area.

A statement by the media aide of the governor, Mallam Ahmed Maiyaki, alleged that the thugs were hired by the opposition party to attack the governor’s convoy with the sole aim of throwing the state into confusion.

“It is unfortunate that the same APC that is chanting change has resorted to violence and threats,” the statement declared.

When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Zubairu Abubakar, said the police were on top of the situation.

It seems some are deliberately trying to instigate chaos perhaps to prompt a postponement of the polls. Let us decide that there shall be no going back on the Feb elections. How? By keeping cool heads in the face of aggression and provocation. And spread the word!

“Fellow Nigerians,

I have said it before and I will continue to say and live by the fact that my ambition, and indeed the ambition of anybody, is not worth the blood of any Nigerian. Therefore, I urge all Nigerians to look forward in hope as we fulfill the dreams of our founding fathers to ‘build a nation where peace and Justice reign". - Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan

If you decides to die for any politician or political party, I can only tell you RIP angry

PDP or APC: Please stop the violence.

Election is not violence and the youths must not allow themselves to be used as political thugs while the politicians children are somewhere abroad enjoying their lives.

Buhari Say No To Violence.

I have said it before and will say it again, if you are not a northerner relocated and return after elections.
The number of people killed daily is increasing just few days to elections. Now imagine what will happen on 14 - 28th February.
