A bus carrying snacks meant to be distributed to party members has been ambushed and broken by some youths at the Anambra rally of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The youths are reported to be among those who gathered to welcome the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu
DAILY POST reports that the youths were milling around the bus, begging to be given the Gala sausages which were parked in cartons in a 608 bus.
Some officials of the party in charge of the snacks were about to start sharing them, when a huge crowd of irate youths surged, causing them to shut the door of the bus while the driver drove off.
The youths, however, chased down the bus, broke open the back door and helped themselves to cartons upon cartons of gala snacks.
The driver who was oblivious to the fact that the bus had been broken into, kept driving while the content of his bus was totally plundered by the ‘hungry youths’.
One of the youths who refused to disclose his name and had gotten as much as four cartons of the gala sausage said: “I wish it was Tinubu’s bullion van that opened like that for us to help ourselves.”
In other news, Rt. Rev. Onyeka Onyia, an Anglican Bishop, of the Nike Diocese in Enugu State has come under fire.
He came under verbal attack after kneeling before Barr. Peter Mbah, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial candidate in the State, during a church service.
The video of the incident has surfaced on the internet.
The incident reportedly occurred during a thanksgiving service in honour of Venerable Prof. Chinedu Nebo, former minister of power and steel.
In the video, Mbah was said to have arrived late during the church service and opted to sit at the rear part of the church.
However, the Bishop approached him and pleaded that he relocate to the front row, an offer the governorship candidate declined.
With Mbah choosing to remain at the back row, Bishop Onyia went on his knees to make him change his mind.
But Mbah, who looked stunned in the video, also went on his knees.
A bewildered priest, who appears to be a chaplain to the Bishop and another congregant were seen pulling the Bishop up.
DAILY POST reports that the development has not gone down well with many Anglican faithfuls.
They are currently venting their anger, with many of them describing the Bishop’s action as a total debasement of the office of a Bishop.
