Terrorists kill 9 farmers in Kaduna 

According to local sources, the victims were cultivating their fields when the heavily armed attackers suddenly arrived and opened fire on them.

A former Chairman of the Birnin-Gwari Emirate Progressive Union (BEPU), Ishaq Kasai confirmed the attack, adding that several farmers were yet to be accounted for.

“I can confirm that the attack took place today and that nine of our farmers were unfortunately killed while working on their farmlands,” said Kasai.

There has been no official response to the attack in the Birnin Gwari area where a government brokered peace with the terrorists had reduced violent attacks significantly.
