The Zamfara chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has condoled the families of late Nafiu Tsoho, who lost his life during a clash between thugs of the party and those of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party.
The party donated N2 million to the family of the deceased and promised an employment slot to one member of the family.
A statement by the state APC publicity secretary, Yusuf Idris, said the state chairman of the party, Tukur Danfulani, led a team of its state working committee to condole with families of victims of yesterday’s clash between supporters of political parties in Gusau.
He said the suspected thugs on Saturday attacked APC youths while they were carrying out sanitation activities in the GRA area of Gusau, the state capital.
“The chairman reiterated that the APC would remain law abiding and always engage the cooperation of security personnel to address such misdemeanours in the society.
“The chairman also said that the APC would settle the medical bills of the 20 other victims wounded by gunshots during the attack as well as support them with cash donations to cushion the effect of their stay in the hospital,” Mr Idris explained.
The police in Zamfara had confirmed that one person was shot dead while 18 others were wounded in a clash between supporters of APC and the Peoples Democratic Party.
