Hello Friends!
Unknown gunmen in Kaduna on Wednesday killed a final year pupil of Imam Secondary School, Adamu Mohammed, at the Rigasa area of the state.
It was learnt that Mohammed, a member of his school’s Man O War Club, was mistakenly killed as his killers suspected he was out to attack them.
The deceased’s elder, Alhaji Maikudi Mohammed, said the boy was shot twice by the gunmen in the presence of his helpless mother who had sent him on an errand.
Narrating his ordeal, Maikudi said his brother came back home wearing his Man O War uniform and his mother sent him to buy something for her in the market when he was shot.
Maikudi said the assailants, who were three in number, shot his brother on sighting him.
He said, “Immediately he stepped out of the house, the gunmen approached him in front of the house and shot him twice.They are three young boys around 22 years; they were on a motorbike.
“When they shot him, the mother came out shouting ‘my Son is a Cardet Man O War not a soldier’, but on hearing that, they zoomed off on the same bike.
“I cannot say who they are but they are small boys. I think its because of the uniform they shot him, they thought he was a soldier.
“The boy is a final year student of Imam Secondary School, Makarfi Roa, Rigasa and writing his final WAEC exams. Our prayers as a family is that God should expose the perpetrators of this act.”
Confirming the incident, the Kaduna State Police Public Relations Officer, Aminu Lawan, a Superintendent of Police, DSP, told our correspondent that the command was aware of the incident and that they had commenced investigation into the matter.
