Stampede at Buhari’s campaign in Jos yesterday kills 2

According to a report on Vanguard two people were trampled to death in a stampede during the APC presidential campaign in Plateau state yesterday January 17th.

The victims were said to be trying to force their way out of the crowded Rwang Pam Township Stadium, venue of the event, when they were trampled on and they gave up the ghost.

Our concern should be that God to take control of the precarious political situation of this country and may the Souls of all the departed Rest in Peace. GMB struggle continues! It shall end in praise.

    Fellow Nigerians, we have Just few days to our elections and below are some vital things we must consider before casting our vote.

    1. Buhari killed Ben ogedengbe by a death penalty for a crime that didn't carry death penalty when he committed it.

    2. Buhari doesn't attend the Federal Council meetings yet collects his allowances. Mr. Integrity indeed.

    3. Buhari canceled former Governor Jakande's metroline and forfeited the $50 million paid for it by the then Lagos State Government

    4 Buhari used Violence to stop the September 1985 National Conference of the National AssociatIon of Nigeria Students.

    5. Buhari jailed Tai Solarin and denied him his asthma drugs simply because he campaigned against military rule and for democracy.

    6. Buhari Jailed Nduka irabor and Tunde Thompson for writing a truthful report which embarrassed his Government

    7. Buhari raided respected Papa Awolowo's house and seized his passport so he couldn't travel out of the country. Was he also corrupt?

    8.Buhari threw Former vice President Alex Ekweme in jail even though it was proven that Ekweme never stole any money.

    9. He jailed honest and respected pa Adekunle Ajasin.

    10. He jailed Fela Kuti in I984 for singing against the dictatorial tendencies of his Military Government

    11 Doctors, remember that Buhari banned the Nigeria medical Association (NMA)

    12. Buhari stopped Ooni of Ife for traveling abroad simply because he visited the holy land of Israel in 1984

    13. He broke up press conference of ASSU in 1984 and detained four of their executives

    14 He jailed Beko Ransome Kuti who only demanded for the release of his brother.

    Nigerians must be careful what they wish for!

    Keep sharing to keep Nigeria democratic and free from oppression.

    Evil APC and Buhari, they have used them for their rituals. All the secret rituals is not okay for them, they are now making it public. Wish Nigerians will open their eyes to see the evil agenda APC has. Mr Balaxy say so...

    Na wa oh! Was the crowd running and if so what was making them run?! They can only be trampled on if the crowd's running nah. The details are unclear. Trust ignorant people to blame Buhari.

    happy Buhari's followers are growing in numbers but still very sad people died at his rally.
