Bandits Kill Imam In Kaduna Mosque Attack
Some armed men invaded a mosque at the Ga Allah Babba villages near Sabon Layi, Kakagi in Birinin-Gwari Local Government Area of the Kaduna State in the wee hours of Tuesday, killing the Chief Imam and a worshipper identified as Kabir, while others sustained various degrees of injuries during the attack. It was gathered by one of the community leaders, Zubair Abdurrauf, that the bandits were returning from Zamfara State via the Kamuku forest near the village when they ran into the Muslim faithful observing their morning prayers. The gunmen, he said, immediately closed the mosque and opened fire on the worshippers, killing the chief imam and two others. Abdulrauf further disclosed that two other worshippers who sustained life-threatening injuries were rushed to the Jibrin Maigwari General Hospital for treatment.
