Some Nigerian youths have begun to attack properties owned by political leaders amid the ongoing nationwide protests against hardships and bad governance in the country. 

According to Sahara Reporters, in videos seen on X on Tuesday, some youths were seen burning a mansion built by a serving House of Representatives member, Nazifi Sani Gumel, representing Gumel/Maigatari/Sule Tankarkar/Gagarawa Federal Constituency. 

The youths accused the lawmaker of neglecting their constituency after his election 14 months ago during the last general elections.

In a similar incident that happened in Yobe State, another set of angry youth attacked a current serving Senator’s House for allegedly siphoning public funds meant for the development of his district.
