Gunmen Kill 4 In Kaduna State ________________________________________ Fresh attacks on Gimi Dogara village in Sanga Local Government Area of Kaduna State by gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen left at least 4 persons dead with 15 houses burnt down. An indigene of the village told Channels Television’s correspondent that the attack, which was launched around 11pm on Thursday, left the villagers scampering to different directions for safety. The Chairman of the Local Government, Mr Emmanuel Adamu, confirmed the incident on Friday, expressing sadness over the development. He described the attack as “retrogressive”. Adamu said the frequent attacks were undermining the peace building process initiated by the council. He called on the attackers to drop their arms and allow peace to reign in the council. When contacted, the State Police Command’s Public Relations Officer, Aminu Lawal, said he was yet to be briefed on the incident. No fewer than four villages in Sanga Local Government have come under separate gun attacks by suspected Fulani herdsmen in the past two months
