Gunmen stormed the home of a member of the House of Representatives, Abdullahi Balarabe Salame, at midnight on Friday.

Around 3am, they assaulted his residence in the Bado region of Sokoto.

Salame, who represents the federal constituency of Gwadabawa/Illela, announced that he had killed one of the assailants.

I was targeted by armed robbers at my house in Sokoto. But by the powers of Allah, I was able to shoot and kill one, and I wounded others,’ he said.

The lawmaker posted pictures of the foiled assault as well.

Salame is a 2023 governorship aspirant, a former Speaker of the Sokoto State House of Assembly.

“They were here to kill him. The opportunity was not granted to them by Allah (SWT) because Allah (SWT) vowed to protect anyone who stands for honesty and trust.

“It’s not the first time this assault. It was done to the people who stand because this kind of challenge confronts society,” Bilal Goronyo wrote on Facebook, a supporter.”

The incident was reported by the Sokoto State Police Command.

ASP spokesman Muhammad Sadiq said the robbery attempt was thwarted by the Joint Metropolitan Police Patrol’s swift reaction.

Sadiq noted that an investigation had started and promised that the gang’s operatives were on the trail.
