Nigerian journalist, Ustaz Yunus, assassinated in Kaduna

The General Manager of New Democrat, a Kaduna-based weekly newspaper, has been killed by gunmen in Kaduna, North-West Nigeria.
The gunmen stormed the residence of Ustaz Yunus, at Ungwan Dosa around 7:45 p.m. on Friday night, colleagues said.
“We suspect a political undertone to his killing because the killers did not take anything from the house. They just stormed the house, killed him and disappear,” a member of staff of New Democrat said.
The Kaduna Police spokesperson, Aminu Lawal, confirmed the murder. He said the police have begun investigation into the killing. May his soul rest in peace.
