A little drama ensued yesterday at the Tunfure police road block in Gombe when the police stopped Senator Muhammad Danjuma Goje from entering the town with his supporters at Tunfure which is a few kilometers from the town.
Thousands of supporters of the former governor had thronged the Gombe International Airport to welcome Senator Goje but the police at the Tunfure check point stopped him saying he cannot enter the town with the long convoy of vehicles and supporters who went to welcome him.
Goje, our correspondent observed, insisted he must enter the town with the crowd of supporters or go back.
After about ten minutes of waiting the police allowed Goje and the large crowd of his supporters into Gombe.
When contacted, the police public relations officer of the command, DSP Fwaje Atajiri, denied that the police stopped Goje saying what happened was a regular security check because of the large crowd of people he was coming in with.
