Residents of Karofin Madaki quarters in Bauchi metropolis were thrown into shock and mourning following the k!lling of a renowned Islamiyyah teacher in the area, Rilwanu Dauda
Dauda, 42, was allegedly k!lled on Sunday by two brothers suspected to be political thugs after a quarrel over political posters.
Dauda was st-abbed in the stomach with a knife and died on the way to hospital.
Trouble started around 10am on that day after the deceased asked the thugs to remove political posters pasted on a billboard adjacent to his family house.
The thugs refused and engaged him in a fight.
According to the deceased’s elder brother, Hamza Dauda, “The younger of the two thugs hit Malam with a stick; while the elder hit him with a knife on the head.
Malam immediately collapsed and people around intervened and forced all the thugs to leave the scene.
“However, the younger thug crossed the road, entered his family house and a few minutes later returned to our family house holding a knife. He met my late brother at the main gate and sta-bbed him in the stomach before running away.
“Some people saw him sneak away after stabbing Malam. It was only after he left that they realised my late brother was bleeding from the injury. He was rushed to the Bauchi State Specialist Hospital where he was confirmed de.ad. He d!ed on the way to hospital.
“I was at my place of work when a friend of mine, Babangida, called me on phone and asked me to come to the hospital because my younger brother was de.ad. On arrival, I checked his body and saw where he was sta-bbed in the stomach.
“Malam was someone who never quarreled with others. Unfortunately, look at how he was brutally murdered for no reason.”
Hamza called on the government and the police to arrest the killers and bring them to justice.
“I want justice in this matter. Everybody knows Malam was not troublesome and he was k!lled unjustly. His family wants justice. The killers should be arrested and made to pay for their actions.”
