You know this area has been recording several attacks by bandits in the last one year, and yet no measure has been taken to save our lives from their frequent attacks,” a source told Daily Trust. 

A family source, who confirmed the incident said that the deceased sold motorcycles at Yahaya Aminu shopping centre in Kafar Doka, Zaria.
