Fresh Attacks as Gunmen kill eight people in Kaduna community

Eight
people were on Wednesday killed in a fresh attack by suspected bandits
in Gonan Rogo, Kufana District, Kajuru Local Government area of Kaduna
State.

DAILYPOST recalls that 17 people were killed on Tuesday
while several houses and property worth thousands of naira was
destroyed.

Wednesday’s attack took place in three villages, Bakin- Kogi, Idanu and Makyali linking Gonan Rogo in Kufana District.

It
was reliably gathered that after Tuesday’s attack, wives and children
from the three villages ran for safety, took shelter in a nearby Idon
community while the men stayed behind in case of further attack. But,
they were all taken unaware when the bandits stormed the area early
Wednesday morning.

Confirming the latest killings, President of
the Adara Development Association (ADA), Mr. Awema Maisamari, said the
attackers stormed the village shooting sporadically and killed seven
instantly, while one person was found dead in a nearby bush.

According to him, the gunmen attacked Bakin- Kogi, Idanu and Makyali communities.

Mr. Awema Maisamari said two other persons were seriously injured and were taken to a nearby hospital.

Kaduna State Police Command’s PPRO, ASP Mohammed Jalige did not respond to calls put across to him for confirmation.
