brother on the shoulder as he was attempting to escape.
“It is the same narrative of
criminality everywhere. Bandits invading communities and breaking into homes,
killing and abducting people,” he said.
“They came to the house in the on
Sunday night, pulled down the window and gain access. “They first shot him on
the shoulder, he wanted to escaped, they followed him and shot him on the back
