An incident was reported to have occurred at the premises of Mamuda Agro Company located in Challawa, Kano State, where a worker was allegedly stabbed to death by a supervisor.
The victim, whose identity has not yet been officially released, was described by Comrade Mukhtar Yunusa Lambu—who claims to be a relative of the deceased—as “a younger brother and a close family member.”
In a Facebook post published on Wednesday, Comrade Mukhtar wrote: “Innalillahi wa inna ilaihi raji’un. This servant of Allah was my younger brother and relative. He was killed at Mamuda Agro Company in Challawa where a supervisor stabbed him, which led to his death.”
According to Mukhtar, the company later transported the deceased’s body home using one of its vehicles. He also made an appeal to relevant authorities for justice.
“We are calling on the leadership, especially the Governor of Kano State, the Chairman of Kumbotso Local Government, and the Councillor of Panshekara Ward, to intervene and ensure justice is served,” he wrote.
He concluded with prayers for the deceased, asking God to forgive his shortcomings and grant him eternal rest in paradise.
Efforts to reach the management of Mamuda Agro Company for comment were unsuccessful as of the time of filing this report.
Authorities have not yet issued an official statement regarding the incident.
