Fulani Terrorists Attack Kaduna Community Kill 6 Residents Including Children

Fulnai Terrorists on Tuesday night reportedly killed six persons in Takanai community of in Zango Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna State. The acting Secretary to the District Head of the Community, Samson Markus, who confirmed the incident on Wednesday, said the terrorists invaded the village at around 7pm and opened fire killing four people in the same compound while two in another family. According to him, two children were also victims of the deadly attack.

According to his words; “We were going about our normal businesses when we heard gunshots, we thought it was the military at first until we saw it was the Fulanis who came in from Zango Urban,” Samson Markus alleged.

“Before the military arrived, they had succeeded in killing six persons, including 2 children. The arrival of the military was what scared them, and they took to their hills and left the community. It is unfortunate this kind of sad incident continues to happen in our villages when we thought normalcy had returned.

“We appealed to the government and the military to redouble their efforts and declare war against these terrorists who invaded villages and killed innocent people,” Samson Markus added.

The attack is coming barely five days after an attack was launched in Kaura where a woman was killed and two of her children were kidnapped. The Kaduna State Police Public Relations Officer, Mohammed Jalige, did not respond to calls put to him as at the time of filling this report.
