APC, PDP supporters clash in Nasarawa, Three killed, Two injured


The renewed determination by the Nasarawa state House of Assembly on Monday to take their impeachment procedure to logical conclusion stirred up APC supporters against PDP leaving 3 persons dead and one person critically injured in Dadere, Obi local government on Tuesday.

The crisis started when Hon. Sidi Bako, a member of the Nasarawa House of Assembly decided to visit his constituency.



PDP Supporters who came to welcome Sidi Bako, who absconded his constituency since the impeachment saga for fear of attack, were disrupted by some APC supporters in the area who were not comfortable with the development.

The reaction by APC supporters triggered some angry PDP youths who felt demeaned and wanted to take immediate action but were prevented by the JTF who were deployed to the area to quell the violence.

However the crisis took a different dimension when some youths in the area got information that one of their members were critically injured and decided to take revenge on APC supporters who fled the area leaving 3 people dead.

The police public relation ASP Numan Ismaila confirmed to our correspondent in Lafia that three bodies were recovered and one critically injured. He said that the force has currently deployed officers to the area for full investigation on the persons involved in the trouble.
