Gunmen have killed the village head of Runji in Auchan Ward, Ikara Local Government Area of Kaduna state, Alhaji Musa Abubakar.

The village head was killed in the early hours of Sunday when the gunmen broke into his residence.

He said his father was shot four times by the attackers.

According to him: “The gunmen invaded the Sarki’s house around 2:00am on Sunday. They operated without any resistance and they killed him at exactly 2:30am.

“They scaled the fence to access the compound after which they broke into the house and brought him out to his outer lounge where they shot him.
