Unknown gunmen last night in Mabera, Sokoto State, killed a member of the State House of Assembly, Alhaji Murtala Attahiru Wauru, who represented the Gada West Constituency.


Details of the incident are not yet available, but a source said the dead legislator was found in a pool of his own blood.  His assailants made away with his car.

Wairu, who would have turned 45 in just over a week, was a graduate of the Sokoto State Polytechnic.
