According to reports the attack happened in the early hours of Friday, the Director of Media and Publicity of MACBN in Kaduna State, Ibrahim Bayero-Zango, confirmed the incident to newsmen, even as there was no official statement from the state or the Police.

According to the MACBAN’s spokesman, the attackers stormed the home of the chairman, popularly known as Dambardi, in Lere town at about 1:00 am.

He added that the gunmen demanded N20m from him before he was whisked away to where the assailants later killed him along the Saminaka-Mariri-Zango highway.

He revealed that early this morning, one of his members called to inform the leadership of the state branch of MACBAN that at about 1:00 am (Friday), unknown gunmen attacked the home of the chairman of MACBAN in Lere LG and killed him.

“When they arrived at the house at about 1:00 am, they demanded the sum of N20m from him to spare his life but he told them he had no such money”.

Although he was able to raise N250,000 for the assailants, they took him to the back of the town along the Saminaka-Mariri- Zango highway where they shot him dead, the spokesman said.

The MACBAN spokesman, while condemning the attack, called on the state government and security agency to investigate the attack to uncover the perpetrators of the heinous act.

“We condemn this heinous act and we are appealing to the state government and the Police to thoroughly investigate the attack and fish out the perpetrators of the attack”.

“This is because Lere is one of the peaceful areas in the state where there has been no issue of herder-farmer crisis”.

“There has been no issue of cattle rustling in the area but, surprisingly, somebody like the slain chairman of MACBAN, a strong supporter and promoter of peace in Lere, could be so brutally gunned down in that manner”.

“We are sad over the incident,” he added
