Information reaching 247ureports.com indicates that the dreaded Fulani militia has struck again. This time at the northern part of the country in a village in Southern Kaduna State. According to eyewitness reports, the group of Fulani bandits attacked the home of the Monarch of Fadan Karshi located in Sanga Local Government Area [LGA] in Southern Kaduna. The Monarch [Bala Madaki Hakimi] along with his grandson was shot with an automatic riffle before being butchered using a cutlass. Bala was aged in his early 50s.
The attack occurred at the early hours of Monday morning.
Fadan Karshi in Sanga LGA is largely populated by Gwandara speaking Christians. The community had been the victims of repeated Fulani militia attacks in the past. Last year in June 2015, the same town was attacked. About 35 people were slaughtered using machetes. The rampaging Fulani militia also destroyed farms and property belonging to the villagers. Most of the homes and churches were burnt and demolished.
The surviving villagers escaped the village abandoning their ancestral homes. Many of the families returned months later to reclaim their homes.
The latest attack comes on the heel of a gruesome attack by the Fulani criminals in Enugu – slaughtering 48 to death and injuring many more.
