The Kaduna State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has
accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) government of Governor Nasir
El-Rufai of allegedly masterminding the recent attack on journalists in
the state.
Some journalists and a faction of the APC stalwarts loyal to Senator Shehu Sani were attacked penultimate week.
Paying a sympathy visit to the state secretariat of the Nigeria Union
of Journalists (NUJ), PDP Chairman in the state, Felix Hassan Hyet,
accused the APC of allegedly using thugs to threaten and intimidate
party members.
He, therefore, warned the APC to, “stop playing politics of
bitterness and learn how to nurture the youths to become useful and
productive instead of engaging them as hoodlums.”
He expressed sadness over the injury inflicted on a photojournalist
by the thugs who were allegedly sponsored and induced by a highly placed
politician in the state.
State chairman of the NUJ, Adamu Yusuf, said such attack had never
happened in the history of the Union in Kaduna and commended the PDP for
identifying with the NUJ in its difficult moment.
