At least one person was on
Thursday killed and several others injured after a group of suspected armed
robbers attacked a Vita Foam store in Ibrahim Taiwo road, opposite the popular
Kantin Kwari textile market in Kano,
North West Nigeria.
Eyewitnesses told Channels
Television’s correspondent in Kano
that the robbers “arrived on two motorcycles at about 5pm and enterered a shop
reportedly selling Vita Foam products while transaction was on-going.”
“They collected money and
instantly shot and killed one of the boys at the shop,” Aminu Adamu said.
Efforts to confirm the incident
from the state’s police command was not successful as the police spokesperson
did not answer calls to his telephone as at the time of publishing this report.
Thursday’s attack comes 16 days
after an armed robbery attack on popular Wapa bureau-de-change in Kano led to the killing
of one person and leaving many others with various degrees of injury.
