The Labour Party governorship campaign convoy of Hon Jonathan Asake in Kaduna state was attacked by thugs on Friday in Gidan Waya, Jema’a local government area of Kaduna state.

A statement issued by James Swam, Media Aide to Jonathan Asake said,
“Four youths were injured in the process, including two boys and two girls while no vehicle was damaged.”

The incident happened when the campaign convoy was passing through Gidan Waya during Friday prayers on its way to Godogodo and other towns as the campaign team tour the local government.

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.

It took the timely intervention of the security personnel attached to the candidate to forestall the crisis.
