The video of the burning property which trended on X captured protesters setting fire to the mansion.
This is happening in the midst of the ongoing nationwide protests against hunger, hardship and bad governance in Nigeria.
It was a case of hoodlums masquerading as protesters
The youths accused Gumel of neglecting his constituency since his election 14 months ago during the last general elections.
Governor Umar Namadi of the State on Thursday, August 1 imposed a 24-hour curfew following vandalism and looting of public and private properties during the protest.
