The Labour Party governorship candidate in Kaduna state, Honourable Jonathan Asake’s campaign convoy has been attacked by suspected political thugs at Gidan Waya in Jema’a Local Government Area of the state.

According to Jonathan Asake, the LP guber candidate, disclosed this via his twitter handle on Friday evening.

He said the attack on our campaign convoy in Gidan Waya, Jema’a LG by thugs, resulting in the injury of four youths, is absolutely condemnable. We strongly condemn such acts of violence, and we call on the authorities to investigate and bring the perpetrators to justice.

Also, the spokesman of the Labour Party Candidate, James Swam, said that the incident happened when the campaign convoy was passing through Gidan Waya during Friday Muslim prayers on its way to Godogodo and other towns as the campaign team toured the local government.

He explained that after the first three vehicles in the convoy made their way through the old tyres used to demarcate the road, thugs started throwing stones, big sticks and other harmful objects at the long convoy, before the timely intervention of the security personnel attached to the candidate to forestall a crisis.

He however said that four people including two boys and two girls were injured during the attack.
