Abuja, Nigeria – Violence erupted at the All Progressives Congress (APC) secretariat in Kano as a group of hoodlums attacked anti-Ganduje protesters. The protesters had gathered outside the secretariat to demonstrate against the governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.

The hoodlums, armed with weapons and sticks, descended on the peaceful protesters, leading to a chaotic scene.
