Presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, Dr Rabiu Kwankwaso, was allegedly pelted with sachets of water while on a visit to Kogi State.

According to Punch, Kwankwaso was in Lokoja to inaugurate the party’s secretariat and his campaign offices.

The publication stated that when Kwankwaso got to a popular hotel to address his supporters, suspected hoodlums invaded the venue and started throwing sachets of water at him.

A similar incident occurred previously when Kwankwaso visited Ogbonicha, the country home of late Abubakar Audu.

He was reportedly accused of trying to hide under the canopy of the late ex-governor to woo supporters of the All Progressives Congress.
