In Bauchi State, the chairperson of Bogoro
Local Government Area, Hassana Arkila, confirmed the death of the PDP
councilor for Gizaki/Badagari Ward, Mr Musa Daniel, saying he was beaten to
death by angry youths while on electoral duty.
Arkila described the attack on the
councilor as unfortunate and linked the incident to saboteurs of democracy.
She said :” I want to confirm the death of a
PDP councilor who was beaten to death by irate youths. l am assuring the people
of the state that the full wrath of law will catch up with the
attackers”.
The chairperson appealed to the perpetrators
of the dastardly act to sheath their sword and embrace peace, saying violence
is not the solution to political differences.
“The death of the councillor is a signal that
the APC is afraid of losing the electoral process. I ask for calm among
PDP supporters”, she added.
