Gunmen numbering five in the early hours of Friday assassinated the Director of Operations of the Kaduna Geographic Information Service (KADGIS), Malam Dauda.

According to Daily Trust, the attackers breached the security of the victim’s house located in Barakallahu community in Igabi Local Government Area of the state where they killed him.

It was gathered that the assailants simply killed the victim and took off leaving all valuables in the house.

It was also gathered that the suspects attacked a nearby community possibly to divert the attention of members of the community as they conducted their nefarious act. There was however no casualty in the other attack.

Confirming the incident, the District Head of the community, Alhaji Muhammad Abdullahi, said the Divisional Police Officers (DPOs) of Rigachikun and Barnawa who are residents of the community have visited the scene of the crime.

According to him, “This is simply a case of assassination because they went to only the victim’s house, killed him and left the community, they did not take anything in his house neither did they attack the guard and his wife.

“Even the other village that was attacked, no life was lost, they just caused commotion and left. We feel they just did that to make it look like an attack.

“We have been facing various security breaches in the community informed by the vast ungoverned land taken over by the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), you know we were in court, we won at the high court but they appealed the case at the Appeal Court here in Kaduna.”
