Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A campaign vehicle belonging to Philip Shaibu, Edo State deputy governor and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, gubernatorial aspirant, has been reportedly attacked by armed men suspected to be hoodlums.<\/p>\n

The hoodlums vandalized the vehicle in Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area of the state on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

It was gathered on Monday that the incident followed a meeting of Shaibu\u2019s supporters in Illeh, Ward 10, ahead of the September 21 governorship elections in the state.<\/p>\n

Otoide Abas, the coordinator of Shaibu\u2019s campaign in the area, who confirmed the incident to Leadership Newspaper, stated that the police had recovered the vandalized vehicle.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cWe concluded a meeting with Ward 10 (Illeh) Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) faithful when the incident happened. The meeting began around 5:00 pm and ended a few minutes before six.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the meeting, we took the Sienna bus provided by Comrade Shaibu to Ekpoma to meet with other supporters.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile making a quick stop at the local market square in Ekpoma to buy some beef barbecue (Suya), about seven boys descended from a nearby parked bus and started shooting. We all ran for safety, and they proceeded to the spot where we had parked the bus, destroying it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe police retrieved the vehicle that night, and as I speak with you, I am at the police station because I was instructed to report today.\u201d<\/p>\n
