Some hoodlums have attacked Mr Waziri Enwongulu, the Legal Adviser, All Progressives Congress (APC) of Wakama ward, Nasarawa State.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, Enwongulu disclosed this on Saturday in Wakama when officials of APC and stakeholders visited him, said that he did not know why the unidentified men attacked him and burnt his brother’s house.


“It was around 1am 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 me.

“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 Chairmanship and Councillorship election in Wakama ward.

“They asked me to lay down and I complied, and they beat me to comer. When I laid down, two of the men were guarding me and the other two went and set my elder brother’s (Mr Paul Angbazo) house that I am living in ablaze.

“As you can see, everything was burnt but I thank God for saving my life,” he said.

Enwongulu said that the unknown assailants also threatened to kill him.

“They asked me to call Dr James Angbazo, the former APC gubernatorial candidate that I should tell him my last word on earth.

“And when I called his (Angbazo) number, he did not pick and they asked me again to call any of my brother’s to tell him that they will kill me,” he added.

He said that the unidentified men also asked him to give them money “but I told them that I have no money.”

While sympathising with Enwongulu, Usman Gboble, the Chairman of APC in the area, urged him to continue to be prayerful.

He said that the party would report the incident to the appropriate authority for necessary action.

The party chairman and other stakeholders of the party had officially informed the Aren Akun, Alhaji Usman Galadima Umbugadu, and the District Head of Wakama, Mr Adams Makka-Nangba, about the attack.

It will be recalled that on October 7, the Nasarawa State Independent Electoral Commission declared that the APC had won all the 13 chairmanship and 147 councillorship positions in the local government election conducted on October 6.
