Doguwa, who represents Doguwa/Tudun Wada Federal Constituency, said the latest incident occurred on August 28, 2025, following the invasion of Tasarrufi General Enterprise, a factory in Tudun Wada LGA by politically motivated thugs.
Doguwa insisted that the attackers injured workers and destroyed property at the site of the enterprise, raising fear in the affected community.
He regretted that the APC Chairman in the LGA, Suyudi Umar, was specifically targeted during the attack while adding that this attack was part of a larger pattern of intimidation targeted at APC members in Doguwa/Tudun Wada LGA by the NNPP structures and leadership in the LGA.
He urged the security agencies to immediately investigate these unlawful incidents.
In the meantime, a non – governmental organization, Human Rights Network, HRN, Nigeria, has petitioned the Nigeria Police in Kano State over this specific case.
The petition, signed by the Country Director, Human Rights Network A.A Haruna Ayagi, stressed that,”We demand thorough investigation and prosecution to forestall further assault and to seek justice for the aggrieved persons”
