Buhari Ahmadu Tanko the Commander of Civilian Joint Task Force (JTF) in charge of Kakuri community, Kaduna South Local Government Area of Kaduna state, has been murdered.

The Nation reports that Tanko was reportedly killed by some yet to be identified assailants.

The Kaduna state police command spokesperson, ASP Aliyu Usman confirmed the incident.


He said, the late Tanko, 27 was murdered by hoodlums while attempting to stop them from stealing from the premises of defunct Kaduna Textile Limited located in his catchment area.

ASP Usman said the incident occurred at about 3:26 hours of Monday 29th August 2016, making it difficult for the police to make immediate arrest of any suspect in connection with the killing.

He however said investigation into the matter has already been launched and the culprits will soon be fished out to face the full wrath of the law.

Effort to speak with family of the deceased could not be established as the time of filing this report.

But member of JTF in Kakuri, who would not want his name in print vowed, never to be deterred by the gruesome murder of their leader in their efforts to make the community safer, urging the state government to train and equip them instead of attempting to scrap the activities of local vigilante in the State as we read in the media.

“We know the community better because we leave here. The government can train us continually so we discharge our responsibility better. What happened cannot stop us from patrolling our area especially at night. And we will bring the killers of Buhari to justice no matter how long it will take us,” he said.

Two female thieves caught and disgraced for scamming a businessman.

Two female thieves caught and disgraced for scamming a businessman.

Two thieves received serious beating at the hands of a very angry mob who gathered to teach them a lesson after they had tried to scam a businessman.

The Kenyan women identified as Wincate Mukami and Faith Wangui, had reportedly been moving around town scamming unsuspecting people under the guise of selling SIM cards.


They drew the attention of other passersby who rushed to the scene when a businessman screamed, as he found out they had tried to scam him of KSh17,000 (N52,000), in the Embu town of Kenya.

According to the Embu Deputy Police boss Ziro Arome, the crowd’s punishment would have taken a turn for the worst if the police did not intervene when they did.

He said: “Had the police not arrived on time, maybe they would have been harmed more. They had visited a businessman’s shop and tricked him to give them the money promising to demonstrate something. They have been conning people under the guise of selling SIM cards.”

The police returned their clothes to the women who were already stripped while they were beaten, allowing them cover their shame.

What a disgrace for them

Nigerian man predicts what could force Buhari out of power

Eniga S. Akihonbhin, a Nigerian man who lives in Italy and is concerned about country’s problems, predicts disturbing future for President Muhammadu Buhari.
The man speaking through his Twitter account has said that All Progressives Congress (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) should start looking for alternative to Buhari as the drawing board is showing red line.

Akihonbhin further stated that what will happen to Nigeria’s economy in the next few months could force the president out of power.

More than one year since the inauguration there is increasing disappointment that President Muhammadu Buhari has not delivered on his lofty promises.

However, some loyal supporters of the incumbent president are becoming frustrated and rethinking the roles they played in assisting Buhari to power amid increasingly agonizing economic and political crises rocking the nation.

The supporters believe President Buhari had so far failed to show that he has the wherewithal, and even the political will, to resolve the multifarious challenges Nigeria is currently facing.
