Gunmen In Military Uniform Kill 3 Persons & 100 Cows In Kaduna
Residents in the Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State are in shock after men in military uniform stormed the Sabon Birnin Daji Cattle Market and opened fire, killing three persons and over 100 cows.
Eyewitnesses claimed the suspected soldiers stormed the market, opening fire on the cattle market, resulting in the deaths of at least three people as traders scrambled for safety.
According to a local, Mallam Shehu Sabon Birni, who spoke to our correspondent, “the dead animals are scattered in the market, causing an offensive odour, making life unpleasant.”
“It was a horrific scene when the soldiers arrived at the market, some of them on motorcycles, and started shooting the animals. Two people were killed in the chaos,” Birni said.
“Now, over 100 dead cows are scattered throughout the market, and the nearby houses are overwhelmed by the stench. We are still unsure why the soldiers took such drastic action,” he added.
