Two senators from Kaduna State, Shehu Sani and Suleiman Hunkuyi, were on Sunday attacked in Kaduna.

The senators were about to address newsmen when a mob stormed the venue.

The incident occurred at the Press Centre of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, in Kaduna, Kaduna State.

Sani and Hunkuyi were rushed to safety by their security aides and journalists.

The assailants destroyed the vehicle that conveyed the senators to the Press Centre

They also damaged properties, including midgets, cameras, tripods for cameras and chairs, at the Press Centre.

Last week, the Senate Committee on Foreign Loans, which Sani chairs, deferred the approval of a loan request by the Kaduna State Government.
