According to Fulani, “a worrisome development took place today( yesterday) during the visit of Hajia Aisha Buhari, the wife of the APC presidential candidate as her convoy was attacked at the Film House along Emir’s Road, Ilorin. About 10 vehicles were vandalized.”
He recalled that APC had repeatedly reported to the police and other security agencies about the plan by the PDP to cause violence before, during and after the forthcoming general elections.
He thus called on the police and other security agencies in the state to be alert and call the PDP in the state to order.
