A member of Gombe State
House of Assembly, Alhaji Umar Aminu (APC), and eight others are feared killed
by insurgents on Saturday.
The
insurgents who attacked Dukku and Nafada local government areas of the state
were said to have killed the lawmaker representing Dukku South Constituency.
A
source told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the insurgents, who came from
Yobe, initially attacked Shole, Birin Bolewa and Birin Fulani towns of Nafada
and later attacked Dukku.
There
was confusion in the two areas as some voters left the polling units but others
later returned to be accredited, the source said.
According
to the source, the insurgents killed three persons in Nafada Local Government
Area, including a policeman and killed six persons in Dukku Local Government
Area, including the legislator.
