LAGOS NOVEMBER 14TH (NEWSRANGERS)-President Bola Tinubu’s convoy was reportedly pelted with stones by angry worshippers and passersby who chanted ‘Bamayi’ after Friday’s congregational prayer at the Shagari Mosque in Abuja.
The incident occurred at the mosque in Area 1, Garki, where the crowd repeatedly chanted ‘Bamayi’, a Hausa expression meaning ‘we are not doing’.
In a video seen by Peoples Gazette, several people were seen chanting the slogan, while others threw stones at the presidential convoy, causing panic as people scrambled for safety.
“We are not doing. We are not doing. We are not doing”, the crowd said repeatedly chanted in Hausa.
Security guards were also seen dispersing the worshippers and passersby who stoned Mr Tinubu’s convoy after the congregational prayer in Abuja.
The Gazette reported on Thursday that thugs attacked the Nigeria Democratic Congress’ (NDC) town hall meeting with the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
When The Gazette contacted Bayo Onanuga, Mr Tinubu’s media aide, he replied in a message that the claim was not true.
“This is not true,” Mr Onanuga’s message read.
