Hoodlums, on Wednesday, attacked the convoy of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital.
The spokesperson of the PDP presidential candidate, Dino Melaye, who disclosed the attack, said 74 persons were injured, adding that several vehicles were vandalised by the hoodlums.
