2023: Unfortunate incidents happen to Atiku in Gombe…
The Gombe offices of the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP and Atiku for President 2023 were attacked by thugs on Tuesday.
A report by The Nation said the thugs ransacked the office, ransacking furniture and taking valuable property, including air conditioners among others.
Atiku Northeast Coordinator for President 2023, Dr. Adamu Bappayo, who addressed reporters in Gombe, expressed his dismay at the incident.
He said he could not give any reason for the attack because former Vice President Atiku Abubakar is a peace-loving gentleman.
“I received a call on my phone around 2am informing me of an attack on the building by thugs. I don’t know what can justify this kind of attack because my director, Vice President Atiku Abubakar, is a peace-loving man.
“He has a smooth relationship with the state governor, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, and many other personalities throughout the state,” he said.
According to him, the matter has already been reported to the Police Commissioner and the DSS, who requested a comprehensive statement on the matter.
At the time of reporting, Gombe PDP Chairman Abnon Kwaskebe is holding a meeting with the state commander of the Nigerian Civil Defense and Security Corps, NSCDC.
Gombe Police Deputy Commissioner Adamu Ngorjin said Police Commissioner Ishola Babaita visited the PDP office to ascertain the situation.
Ngorjin said it was too early to comment on the incident because police were still investigating it.
