 Bandits Kill 13 At Wedding In Kaduna, Abduct Several Guests


At least 13 people have been killed following a bandit attack on a wedding ceremony in Kahir village, located in Kagarko Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

According to a resident, Shehu Bala, the attackers, armed with AK-47 rifles, stormed the venue in large numbers and opened fire indiscriminately on attendees.


Several injured victims were rushed to Kagarko General Hospital for treatment, while two individuals with critical injuries were referred to medical facilities in Kaduna.


“In fact, two of my friends who were inside the hall also sustained bullet injuries during the attack,” Bala said, noting that the number of abducted persons remains unclear due to the chaotic nature of the incident.


A community leader, who spoke anonymously, confirmed the attack and identified the victims as Bako Danjuma, Williams Luka, Peter Williams, Joseph Yakubu, Victor Peter, John Dan Asabe, Angulu Markus, Maikano Aribi, Douglas John, Ado Yakubu, Zaphaniah Alhaji, Joseph Kaddah, and Francis Unguwa Doya.
