Traditional Ruler’s Scribe Slain Alongside Wife, Daughter-In-Law In Kaduna

The Kaduna State Police Command and the Defence Headquarters
outfit Operation Safe Haven, have reported to the Kaduna State
Government the killing of three persons on Saturday night.

In a statement issued by the commissioner for Internal Security
and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan on Sunday said the assailants
stormed the home of Sgt. Christopher Madaki (Rtd), a scribe to a
Ward Head at Golkofa, Jema’a LGA and shot him, as well as his wife
and his son’s wife.

The statement further revealed that the three were later
confirmed dead, while his son (Clement Musa Madaki) survived with
injuries inflicted on him by the assailants.

The scribe’s wife was identified as Mary Christopher Madaki and
his son’s wife was Alice Musa.

Also, the statement disclosed that a breakdown of law and order
was averted in Kachia town, headquarters of Kachia LGA following
the killing of one Hamidu Nura by one Abba Muhammad.

According to the statement, the origin of the fisticuffs between
the two is being investigated by security agencies. It however
ended with Abba Muhammad stabbing Hamidu Nura to death.

‘Some irate citizens then mobilized themselves and captured Abba
Muhammad, attacking him with knives, clubs and other dangerous
weapons, and eventually killing him in a jungle justice
approach.

In another development, troops of Operation Safe Haven received
a report of a missing person, Ngode Patrick Kambai, in Mabuhu
village, Zonzon district, Zangon Kataf LGA.

Kambai, a commercial motorcycle rider, was reported by his
father to have been missing since around 8:00 am on Thursday when
he left home on his motorcycle and did not return.

Troops are coordinating efforts to locate and rescue the missing
person while engaging his family and community.

Security agencies have equally made some arrests of notorious
bandits across the state and citizens will be briefed as soon as
operatives conclude preliminary investigations.

Governor Nasir El-Rufai has condemned the killing in Golkofa
village and described it as completely inhuman and ungodly. He
prayed for the repose of their souls and charged security agencies
to expedite action on the case.

The Governor is awaiting further briefs on the Kachia and Zangon
Kataf LGAs incidences.
