One of the voters who was attacked in Kano State during Saturday’s

to his account, he was saved by “good Samaritans” and taken to the
hospital where he spent three hours in admission.  

In his words: “Alhamdulillah. I survived. I was violently
attacked by thugs at Santulma Primary School polling unit at Gama Ward
in Kano today Saturday. I was saved by the grace of God and some good
Samaritans, who also took me to Gwagwarwa hospital, where I was admitted
for three hours, stitched and discharged. Is the fraud called elections
in Nigeria worth dying for? I don’t think so. Lessons learnt.”
