Gunmen murder Islamic scholar in Yobe

A Yobe-based Islamic scholar, Sheikh Goni Aisami, has been attacked and killed by gunmen on Saturday at Jajimaji, the headquarters of Karasuwa Local Government Area of the state.

The cleric was said to be travelling from Gashua to Kano when he was followed in a bus by the attackers.

It was said that the incident happened around 10am at Jajimaji, a distance of less than 30 kilometers away from Gashua, the hometown of the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan.

Police spokesman in the state, DSP Dungus Abdulkarim, in a telephone conversation said suspects wielding AK-47 rifles have been arrested and are in police custody.
