Youths from Benue State on Wednesday stormed the Aper Aku stadium in Makurdi with broom lit with fire to ‘cleanse’ the venue of the All Progressives Congress presidential rally.
President Muhammadu Buhari and his entourage were in the Aper Aku stadium as part of their state-to-state campaign tour ahead of the February 16 election.
The angry youth said Buhari and his team came to the state with bad luck.
The youths, in their hundreds, were seen running around the stadium with burning fire and chanting victory song.
