HUNDREDS of supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Friday, stormed his private residence in Yola to pay him a visit ahead of Saturday’s presidential election.

Atiku had retired to the house after his final campaign in the town.

Petty traders, youths, women and some PDP members were seen at the gate of the mansion with security operatives having a tough time trying to stop them gaining entrance into palatial home of the former vice president of the country.

An aide said Atiku was expected to address the crowd briefly before going for Friday Jumaat prayer at the Lamido Palace mosque. – Punch
