Panic As Nigerian Senator Governorship Campaign Office Is Burnt Down

Senator Jibrin, who is away in Abuja was said to have cried out that, “they have burnt down my campaign office, what sort of politics is this, that a whole campaign office could be burnt down”.

The State Police Commissioner, Ismaila Dikko, confirmed the incident, saying his me have taken over the area for assessment.

“We are already in control of the situation, and my men have fully taken over the place investigating what happened”, the police chief explained.

Politics in Kano is getting hotter especially after the declaration of an Abuja High Court annulling the elections of the Governor’s APC leadership under Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas.

On Tuesday, men of the state revenue office locked up the office of the lawyer of the House of Representatives member, Shaaban Ibrahim Sharada, Barrister Ibrahim Jimoh SAN, who secured victory against the state in the APC Congresses crises.

They accused the owners of the six-storey building housing Jimoh’s office of not settling N3 billion tenement rent, a reason they said they padlocked the place.
