Nasarawa APC crisis: Government calls for probe into rally disruption

The Nasarawa State Government has asked security agencies to investigate disturbances that reportedly disrupted Vice-President Kashim Shettima’s visit to the Emir of Lafia during Wednesday’s APC presidential rally. Governor Abdullahi Sule’s social media aide, Emmanuel Innocent Akwe, alleged that aggrieved party members threw objects, suspected to be stones, at the governor at Lafia Square. Secretary to the State Government Labaran Magaji called for a thorough investigation, the identification of those responsible and action under the law. The circumstances and identities of those involved have not been independently established, and no official clarification had been issued by the time of the report.
