How body of Taraba monarch found
Musa Sansani, a resident of the community, told journalists that gunshots were heard, but it never occurred to them that it was from the palace.
Sansani said:
“The late chief told us Yesterday that he was travelling to Ibbi for the Nwonyo Fishing Festival, which is taking place on Friday and Saturday. We never knew the Chief did not travel Yesterday evening, so when we heard the gunshots, we did not suspect it was inside the palace.”
According to the resident, the gunmen left the town silently after killing the traditional ruler, and it was his wife who found his dead body in his room. The wife then raised the alarm, which later attracted the attention of the people.
