By John Shiklam in Kaduna

In spite of the massive security presence in the southern part of Kaduna State, gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen on Tuesday invaded a market in Samaru Kataf in Zangon Kataf Local Government Area of the state, killing three people.

The gunmen, who were said to have arrived the market at about 6:00pm when the traders were leaving for their homes, opened fire on the people.

An eyewitness told THISDAY in a telephone interview that three people were killed on the spot while four others, who sustained injuries from gun shots, were rushed to nearby hospitals.
