THUGS ATTACK APC OFFICIAL OVER POLL RESULT ALTERATION

 Thugs attack Nasarawa APC official over ‘change in result of LG poll’

A house belonging to Enwongulu’s brother was reportedly set ablaze during the attack.

The Nasarawa APC chieftain, who narrated his experience to NAN, said four persons armed with dangerous weapons, invaded his residence in the early hours of Saturday.

“It was around 1:10 am today that I heard some voices at my door that I should come out or they will set my elder brother’s house ablaze, including mine,” he said.

"When I came out of the house, I saw four people with knives, cutlasses and big sticks. They told me that APC changed the result of the chairmanship and councillorship election in Wakama ward.

“They asked me to lie down and I complied, and they beat me to coma. When I laid down, two of the men were guarding me and the other two went and set my elder brother’s (Paul Angbazo) house that I am living in ablaze. As you can see, everything was burnt, but I thank God for saving my life.”

Enwongulu added that the thugs also threatened to kill him.

“They asked me to call Dr James Angbazo, the former APC gubernatorial aspirant, and tell him my last word on earth,” he said.

“When I called Angbazo’s number, he did not pick and they asked me to call any of my brothers to tell him that they will kill me.”

While speaking with Enwongulu on his experience, Usman Gboble, APC chairman in the area, said the party would report the incident to law enforcement agencies.

Candidates of the APC were declared winners of the chairmanship and councillorship positions in all the 13 LGAs of the state, on Wednesday.

They were sworn into office on Friday by Abdullahi Sule, governor of Nasarawa, at a ceremony held at the Aliyu Akwe Doma banquet hall.

Man gets to positions of power and authority and bring to bear their inner qualities. Position, as we have it here, is used to do all sorts of things; good and bad. But mostly and vexatiously, position blinds us as we use it to cheat and deny others their rights. Certain men understand that position is an opportunity to etch their names in gold and put such in the same of time.   It is exactly fifty years today that the 42nd Deji of Akure, late Oba Agunsoyebioyinbo Ademuagun Adesida 11 joined his ancestors. That fateful day was Sunday and in the evening; darkness was just enveloping the city. It was the strange shouts of "opo ye o, opo ye o, opo ye o", that prompted me to rush out of our house at Oke aro. I saw people running helter, skelter. I did not bother about them. I was looking for the "electric
