“We feel they purposely came to pick Alhaji Ardo, and when they attempted, he might have showed some resistance, that’s why they shot him and then abducted his daughter.”

DAILY POST recalls that the community has witnessed series of attacks in recent past, as many people have been abducted and others killed.

The Police Spokesman in the State, ASP Mohammed Jalige did not pick his calls, just as he did not respond to a text message sent to him.
