The Senator representing Kano South
Senatorial District, Alhaji Kabiru Gaya, on
Friday night, was reportedly attacked by four
armed men, said to be dressed in military
fatigue and snatched a Prado SUV in which
he was travelling.
The senator’s spokesperson, Idris Afegbua,
who confirmed the development in a
statement late Friday, said his boss was
travelling to Kano from Abuja when he was
suddenly attacked along the Jaji-Zaria road
by unknown gunmen in military uniform.
Mr. Afegbua, who said the incident occurred
around 7:30 p.m., said the senator was
however unhurt, although his car, with
Registration Number FL 16 SEN, was
snatched at gun point by the attackers.
“The case has been reported to the police
who have already taken action”, he said.
The Senator is said to have returned to
Kaduna.
The Kaduna State Police Command is yet to
respond to the attack on the senator at the
time of publishing this report.
