Sambo VP Drama: Armed Thugs Held Sambo Hostage in Kano on Monday

Vice President Namadi Sambo had a raw deal in the hands of suspected thugs in Kano, Monday, when he was held hostage for 20 minutes before a negotiated settlement.

The incident occurred at the old campus of Bayero University Kano shortly after the number two citizen rounded up official engagement in the university.

It took the intervention of the Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of Zone 1, Tambari Yabo, before the vice president regained his freedom.

The drama began when dozens of heavily armed thugs who posed as loyal party men beat the security cover around the vice president.
