Bandits have attacked Kano State Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje’s convoy. The attack took place along Shema in Katsina State on their way back to Kano from Zamfara State.
Kano State Commissioner for Information Muhammad Garba confirmed the incident, disclosing that slight injuries were recorded. However, he said that Ganduje was not in the
convoy.
Reports have it that the security men attached to Ganduje’s convoy engaged the bandits in a gun duel. Three police officers sustained bullet injuries, while the convoy ambulance was riddled with bullets.
Governor Ganduje was not in the convoy when the armed bandit launched its attack as he travelled along with Jigawa State Governor Muhammad Abubakar Badaru.
It will be recalled that Governor Ganduje was in Zamfara State to attend the formal defection of Governor Bello Matawale of Zamfara into the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Nigerian Tribune’s findings disclosed that after the occasion, he joined the Jigawa State governor back to Kano.
It was said that Ganduje was not happy that his convoy did not fill their tanks for the return journey and he ordered them to proceed while he joined Badaru.
Unfortunately for the Ganduje’s convoy, on their way back to Kano, the convoy came under heavy gun attacks from the bandits. The attack was however repelled by the security men in the Kano governor’s convoy.
