Yohana Margif: Labour Party’s governorship candidate in arrested

Yohana Margif, the Plateau State Labour Party governorship candidate has been arrested by police officers in Abuja.

It was gathered that Mr. Margif was whisked away on Thursday along the busy Kubwa expressway in the Federal Capital Territory.

Confirming the arrest to Peoples Gazette on Friday, Mr Margif’s running mate, Jack Dung Bot, said that he wasn’t ready to speak because he was “too emotional,” and also “trying to put himself together.”

He, however, promised to reach out when he gets his composure in check.

A family source confirmed Mr Margif’s arrest but could not immediately state the reason for the arrest or which police station he was taken to.

“No one has hinted me on the details yet. I don’t know the station, but I asked someone to tell me, he promised to call back,” he said.
