BREAKING: Suspected Terrorists Kill Ruling PDP Secretary In Zamfara State

The deceased was said to have been shot dead by the terrorists in front of his residence in Tsafe on Monday. 

Gunmen suspected to be terrorists have killed the secretary of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State, Alhaji Musa Ille.

The deceased was said to have been shot dead by the terrorists in front of his residence in Tsafe on Monday. 

“The late Musa Ille was one of our good and God fearing neighbors, he was killed him in front of his house,” a resident told News24Hours Reporters.

Zamfara is one of states in the Northern region plagued by criminals known as bandits who raid and loot villages, kill residents and burn houses to the ground.

The gangs maintain camps in a huge forest straddling the state, Katsina, Kaduna, and Niger states, and have carried out mass kidnappings of students from schools in recent years.

Recently, another prominent PDP chieftain in Zamfara, Alhaji Shafiu Abubakar, along with two others were killed near Danbaza junction and Maradun town, the headquarters of Maradun local government area.

Abubakar was murdered while pursuing his ambition to contest the chairmanship seat of Maradun Local Government Area council in the upcoming local government elections.
