State Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Hon. Ali Bukar Dalori and some members of the state House of Assembly, who were meeting at one of the government lodges in Maiduguri were forced to scale high walls for dear lives following clash between police attached to the APC state chairman and members of the vigilante group popularly called Civilian JTF.
DAILY POST gathered that, the clash started when the police attached to the APC chairman attempted to stop some members of the civilian JTF, who claimed that the APC chairman assigned to them some assignments, which they claimed they had completed and needed their compensation.
Sources, close to the the APC chairman told DAILY POST that, the CJTF were impatient. ” When they came demanding to see the chairman, they were told that he was in a meeting but they were not ready to wait. They told the police that they were in a hurry and that it would take nothing for the chairman to come out and settle them and go back to continue with his meeting. But you know, instruction was given to the police and they needed to carry it out.”
A civilian JTF, Umar Konduga told DAILY POST that, the CJTF who clashed with the police attached to the APC chairman are all from Konduga local government.
According to him, ” they have been shooting themselves. The police shot a civilian JTF on the leg and the civilian JTF also shot the police on the leg. This is do me, I do you God no go vex. We the civilian JTF, we respect security operatives but this one is refusing us to collect our entitlement.”
