According to the Punch, the incident was provoked by the attack on one of the governorship aspirants in Nasarawa State, Alhaji Yusus Agabis’ car in convoy who was heading to the PDP secretariat at about 1pm on Thursday.
A group of ardent PDP supporters immediately pounced on a vehicle belonging to the APC and a massive fight broke out. It was gathered that at least 12 people sustained sustained varying degrees of injuries and eight vehicles were vandalised.
The situation, that lasted for several hours, led to a heavy traffic on the Jos-Makurdi road, leaving commuters, travelling through Lafia to Makurdi, Enugu, Kano, Kaduna and Federal Capital Territory, stranded for hours.
One of the vexed passengers, Musa Haruna, who stuck in a traffic jam as well as others, wondered how hoodlums could take the law into their hands in the name of political rallies.
