Bomba Dauda
The anguish of the Adara people in Kajuru Local Government Area, LGA, of Kaduna state seems to have no end in sight. The attacks by Fulani militia has been a recurring decimal. In another ill-fated day, Ayuba Bulus, 40, of Efele Doka Avong village, in Kajuru LGA, went to his farm just outside the village. He was ambushes and killed. He was slaughtered like a ram. The distraught villagers burried him afterwards.
In the middle of their sorrow, Rev. Thomas M. Tanko, 48, of the village Baptist Church went to his farm around 3pm just at the egde of the village. Fulani militia who had earlier killed Bulus were laying in ambush among the grown maize in the farm. They descended on him with daggers and matchetes. But he fought back screaming aloud for help. Rescue came, but not after he had sustained grevious injuries. He is now under intensive care in an undisclosed hospital.
Unknown to the villagers, the worse was to come same day. The Fulani millitia regrouped and returned in large numbers an hour later.
The picture below is the mass graves with the corpses of two kids, a woman and a man killed in the attacked as surmmarised.
