PDP Secretariat Burnt Down In Nasarawa by Franchise21(op): 2:55pm On Feb 22, 2015
Unknown arsonists, early Sunday, burnt
down the secretariat of the Peoples
Democratic Party in Obi Local Area of
Nasarawa State.
This happened 48 hours after the party
held its 2015 general elections campaign in
the area.
The spokesperson for the Nasarawa police
command, Ismaila Numan, who confirmed
the incident, said 18 suspects have been
arrested in connection with the crime
while police officers have been deployed to
the scene of the incident to prevent further
breakdown of law and order.
Mr. Numan said the office was burnt a day
after youth of the All Progressives Congress
and those of the PDP clashed over
vandalisation of billboards and campaign
materials.
PREMIUM TIMES gathered that the
arsonists allegedly came with petrol in
gallons, poured it on the roof of the
secretariat and then set the building
ablaze.
Witnesses say the arsonists also drove
away the security man before torching the
building.
The incident was a spillover of the Friday
clash between the supporters of the PDP
and the APC where gunshots were
exchanged, leaving casualties on both
sides.
One witness, Ibrahim Kasimu, said the
incident started when youth suspected to
be APC supporters began to destroy
canopies and chairs used by the PDP
during their campaign in Obi Local
Government Area.
PDP youth, who responded to the attacks,
took to the streets destroying every APC
property in sight.
The rampage happened a day after
political parties in the state signed a code
of conduct for the 2015 general elections in
the presence of heads of security agencies
in the state.
The signing of the accord was organised by
the state police command at the police
officers mess along Jos road Lafia.
The State chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party, Yunana Iliya, who also confirmed the
burning of the party’s office, said all documents and
valuables in the office were burnt.
He asked security agencies in the state to take note of the
attack on its members and property and to, as a matter of
urgency, provide security for its members and supporters.

This is bad. Damaging properties all the name of politics is uncalled for. Let we all have the good spirit of sportmanship, politics should not be a thing of do or die affair.

God bless Nigeria
God Crown APC

There are many lives,limbs,properties, businesses and thus livelihoods that wud have been saved if this elections had been allowed to hold on their original scheduled dates.The nation wud have moved on from there no matter who won.
In 2010 and 2014 anambra gubernatorial elections,voter turn out was btw 24-20%,yet the elections were deemed valid.
But because of one man's fear of defeat at the polls and what becomes of him and his cronies if his rival wins, many families are now moaning over loss of breadwinners,incapacitation of family members and/or loss of income.
