It seems to have been a bad day for the People's Democratic Party (PDP) as some angry youth on Saturday attacked and set ablaze a campaign bus branded with president Goodluck Jonathan's campaign poster at Zololo junction, Bauchi road, Jos-North Local Government area of Plateau State.
The attack which occurred as PDP supporters in the state converged at the Hiapang Airport to receive the gubernatorial candidate of the party, Gyang Pwajok, who was returning from Lagos after receiving his flag last Thursday has generated tension in the state capital as residents rushed home for safety.
Though the bus was badly damaged and burnt, a source who simply identified himself as Adams speaking with Metro TimesNG said the driver escaped unhurt.
"The driver quickly got down from the car and ran away before the guys attacked the bus. If not for God's intervention, the damage could have been more than this..." he said
