Unknown gunmen, on Thursday night, killed a third-class traditional ruler, Abdulmutalib Nuhu, at Sensani Village in the Gasol Local Government Area of Taraba State.
It was gathered that Nuhu was murdered a few hours before the hosting of the Nwonyo Fishing and Cultural Festival organized by the Taraba State Government in the Ibbi Local Government Area of the State.
Reports gathered revealed that Ibbi is the hometown of Hamisu Bala, also known as Wadume, the notorious convicted gun runner, who was released from prison a few days ago.
Recall that, the assailants stormed Sensani village at about 9pm and headed straight to the palace of the traditional ruler, a few kilometres from Ibbi, the venue of the festival.
