GUNMEN KILL 9 FEMALE HEALTH WORKERS IN KANO

Nine female health workers were killed by unknown gunme in Unguwa Uku area of Kano metropolis, while they were carrying out polio immunization in the city. Eye witnesses said that the gunmen were on a tricycle when they opened fire on the victims who were immunization staff who go from house to house for immunization exercise. The gunmen  fled the scene of the attack before security agents could reach the area.

Several Islamic clerics are opposed to polio vaccination claiming that it was a western scheme to limit Muslim population in Nigeria. This is the first time gunmen will be using tricylcles to stage such attacks since the state government banned the use of commercial motorcycles in the commercial city.
