BREAKING: 2027: Atiku's campaign convoy reportedly attacked in Kebbi [VIDEO]

On Thursday, the presidential campaign convoy of Atiku Abubakar, the ADC presidential candidate, was reportedly targeted in Kebbi State. According to the campaign team, hoodlums suspected of being thugs blocked the convoy, threw stones at the vehicles, and targeted members of the media crew accompanying the campaign.

The attack resulted in significant damage to the media team's equipment. Cameras, video gear, tripods, and other essential tools were smashed, rendering the crew unable to continue providing live coverage of the campaign. The ADC campaign team described the attackers as "sponsored thugs" and claimed the attack was planned to intimidate supporters and silence the media.

They emphasized that the thugs were not interested in stealing but sought to destroy the media's equipment to prevent Nigerians from witnessing the events in Kebbi.

A spokesperson for the campaign team stated, "The thugs did not come to steal. They came to destroy. They targeted our cameras and video crew because they did not want Nigerians to see what is happening here in Kebbi." The APC sponsored thugs attack on the ADC presidential campaign convoy in Kebbi can be viewed in the following video: [VIDEO].
