JIGAWA State party secretariat of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) situated in the state capital, Dutse, has been set ablaze.
The secretariat was torched during the violence that broke out in the protest against hunger tagged #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria.
Aggrieved youths had stormed the facility in Dutse, the state capital, where they destroyed billboards and other publicity materials before burning down the building.
They also burnt vehicles that were parked within the premises.
The violence spread to some other parts of the state as armed youths broke loose despite efforts of security operatives to contain them.
In Birnin Kudu, where some persons sustained injuries, the State Fertilizer Store and Grains Store were all vandalized and looted by the hoodlums, while the store of the state Agricultural Supply Company (JASCO) in Gumel was also attacked.
The mob also attacked the residence of the House of Representatives member representing Gumel, Gagarawa and Maigarati, as well as the residence of the APC Zonal Vice Chairman.
The state government has declared a 24-hour curfew across the state.
