Yakawada Condemns El-Rufai Campaign Coordinator's Killing

Former Secretary to Kaduna State government and member, Transition Committee, Hon Samai’la Yakawada, has condemned in strong terms, the killing of El-Rufai Campaign coordinator in Atuku, Jema’a LGA of Kaduna state.

Gunmen had trailed Mr. Markus Ishaya to his village in Atuku Kasa, and shot him several times.

Late Ishaya was the Governor-elect’s coordinator in Atuku Ward and did very well in mobilizing for support. He has since been buried.

But Yakawada in a statement, condemned the attack, describing it as barbaric.

"I want to use this opportunity to condemn the killing of Markus Ishaya by agents of wickedness. My empathy and prayers go to the family of Ishaya and the entire community over this callous murder and desecration of human life.

"May Almighty God grant his soul eternal rest and give his family and friends the fortitude to bear this painful loss," Yakawada said.
