By Modupe Shodeinde
The State Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, said bandits attacked Kajuru and Igabi councils of Kaduna State and killed seven persons and injured others.
The Commissioner confirmed the attacks in a statement on Sunday.
According to him, bandits attacked Kajinjiri village in Igabi and killed two residents identified as Ibrahim Rabi’u and Abdulrahman Mohammad, while one person sustained a gunshot injury.
He added that the bandits attacked Rago village also of Igabi LGA and killed Alhaji Ibrahim Iro and Muhammadu Rabiu.
“In a separate incident, gunmen also invaded Kutura station in Kajuru LGA and killed three residents; Michael Shadari, Clement Bili and Danlami Shaban,” he added.
In another development, the authorities of Kebbi State University (KSU), Aliero, has ordered the indefinite closure of the institution.
This follows the murder of a 400-Level Biochemistry student, Shamsudeen Sale, in a mob action.
The spokesperson of the university, Hussaini Zuru, said the murder caused the students to go on a rampage, blocking the highway leading to Sokoto State.
According to Zuru, Sale was murdered by some residents of Aliero town after he bought a phone and paid through bank transfer but the sellers could not get a notification immediately.
It was gathered that Sale had gone back to the seller to sort out the issue when the people around started calling him a thief, triggering the mob action that led to his death.
When contacted, the image-maker of Kebbi police command, DSP Nafiu Abubakar, confirmed the incident but said he was yet to get details.
