Drama unfolded in Plateau State on Saturday as some residents burned items they received from the All Progressives Congress, APC, following the party's presidential campaign rally in Jos. The angry crowd, as captured in a viral video, seized the campaign materials and set them ablaze in the open, expressing their frustration over ongoing hardships and insecurity.

The residents, who gathered to hear the APC's presidential candidate, Asiwya Tinubu, were seen collecting the caps and brooms as souvenirs. However, their mood quickly shifted when they were asked to leave the rally site, and they decided to burn the items, citing their disappointment with the party's failure to address their needs.

One resident angrily declared, "We are hungry. We don't need caps and brooms. We need food, jobs, and security." Another resident added, "The APC has failed the people of Plateau, especially after the recent attacks that left many families homeless." The video has sparked reactions across Nigeria, with many mocking the party while others acknowledge the level of anger among the populace.

As of the time of this report, the APC in Plateau State has yet to comment on the incident. The full video can be viewed at https://twitter.com/i/status/2121692718355169731.
