Unknown gunmen have shot former Kano state chairman of the now defunct
All Peoples Party (APP) Ibrahim Little.
Daily Trust reports that the attack occurred at Kidan-Dan town, near
Birnin Gwari in Kaduna state on Sunday, February 25.
An aide of the former Kano state chairman of the APP, which later
metamorphosed into All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), said the gunmen opened
fire at Little and his driver while they were about entering into his car after
coming out from the farm.
The aide said the assailants took to their heels after shooting,
thinking they had killed Little, not knowing he was only shot in the arm.
"Probably thinking that he
died, they ran back into the bush and after some time he was able to struggle
and come out and drove to Kaduna with the driver."
The politician is said to be currently receiving treatment at an
undisclosed private hospital in Kaduna where an operation will be carried out
to remove the bullet in his arm.
It would be recalled that Little decamped to the Peoples’ Democratic
Party from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano state.
He explained that he decamped because he was not impressed with the
party's deliveries since it came to power.
