Unknown gunmen on tricycle, Sunday, shot dead four persons in three separate incidents in Kano.

Security sources said that the first incident was recorded at Dakata, where a middle-aged man was shot at close range.

Minutes later, another person was shot opposite Custom barracks, located along Hadejia road all in Nassarawa Local Government Area of the state capital.

The source further explained that two other persons were shot dead at Hotoro Primary School, in the same local government.

Kano State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Musa Daura, however, said three persons were killed. A statement by the Police boss said: “The attack was carried out by unknown gunmen on tricycle around 1.30pm.

“Five fleeing suspects were arrested along Gezawa road shortly after the attack.”

The killings coincided with the one-day visit of Vice President Namadi Sambo to the state.
