Attack During Election In Rivers

As Nigerians and each states of the federal republic decide who their next governors will be photos from some political attacks circulates the world wide web.

The admonitions ‘Politics shouldn’t be a do-or-die affair’, ‘vote not fight’ and many more have been over flogged. The popularity of these admonitions might have made it to lose its generic meanings to a lot of Nigerians as most people still engage in political violence.

There were quite a number of political clashes in Rivers state (and other parts of Nigeria) today.

The All Progressives Congress and Peoples Democratic Party supporters clashed this morning in Kano. As the fight was on going, some of them rushed to where the ballot papers were and set them on fire, which automatically ended elections in that unit. This happened at the Karan Mata ward in Madobi Local Government.
