Gunmen Kill 2 In Southern Kaduna

BY SEGUN ADEBAYO, ABUJA – The culture of unprovoked killings continued unabated as two people from Aso were gunned down in the early hours of Thursday, April 5, 2018 in the village of Asso in Kagoma chiefdom.
According to a press statement signed by Hon S.N.Garba Sarkin-Noma, who is a member representing Jema’a/Sanga Federal Constituency,

“Two young men were gunned down in the early hours of today 5th April, 2018 in the Village of Asso. The victims were returning to the Village after taking a sick relation to the Hospital in Kafanchan.

“This will be the third time that an attack will be carried out from the uncompleted Asso bridge. This unfortunate incident is coming less than a week after the killings in Bakin Kogi in Kaninkon Chiefdom where 6 persons were brutally murdered by unknown gunmen.

“That these attacks are being perpetrated in the absence of any provocation and despite the presence of Security Personnel within the vicinity,is an affirmation that a silent war has been declared on our Communities by Agents of darkness.

“I am calling on the Kaduna State Government to show more than a passive interest in these attacks . I am also appealing to the Military Task Force based in Kafanchan to work harder to fish out these Agents of Darkness. Until the State is able to fish out, expose and punish the Perpetrators of these heinous crimes, for so long will these criminals continue on their path of perfidy.

“To our Communities, one cannot over emphasise the necessity for eternal vigilance. My condolence to the bereaved Families and my Dear Community, Asso that has become the latest victim of yet another attack.”
