Reports indicates that group of unidentified hoodlums have on Sunday night attempted to set the Bauchi State House of Assembly complex on fire.
It was not clear what was the reason behind this attempt, but some believed that it is not unconnected to the current leadership crisis rocking the assembly.
A source revealed that in the late hours of Sunday around 11pm, unknown persons numbering more than 50 forced their ways into the gate burning tyres and other objects with the intention of setting the complex on fire.
However, the State and National Assembly Liaison to the Bauchi State governor Honorable Sani Muhammed Burra confirmed the incident in a press statement he made available to the newsmen, Monday.
According to him, the siege on the Assembly by security operatives was to forestall possible breakdown of law and order after the Sunday night incident.
