A group of unknown bandits, on Tuesday, July 5, opened fire on the advance convoy of President Muhammadu Buhari, deployed ahead of his Trip to Daura, Katsina state for Sallah Celebrations.
This attack on President Buhari was confirmed via a statement issued by the presidential aide, Garba Shehu, who hailed the Presidential Security Guards for successfully repelling the attack.
Shehu stated;
The Presidency has described as sad and unwelcome, the shooting incident near Dutsinma, Katsina State, at the convoy of cars carrying the Advance Team of security guards, protocol, and media officers ahead of President, Muhammadu Buhari’s trip to Daura for Sallah.
The attackers opened fire on the convoy from ambush positions but were repelled by the military, police, and DSS personnel accompanying the convoy.
Two persons in the convoy are receiving treatment for the minor injuries they suffered. All the other personnel, staff, and vehicles made it safely to Daura.
According to Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), President Muhammadu Buhari is doing little to halt the armed Fulani terrorists in the South East.
Emmanuel Onwubiko, the HURIWA National Coordinator, made this allegation via a statement on Sunday, July 3.
HURIWA denounced the brutal killing of Solomon Chukwudi, a gifted dancer who was traveling from Abuja to his village in the South East.

The group emphasized that this was feasible given Imo Governor Hope Uzodimma’s rabid desire for political dominance at all costs, acting like a Fulani saboteur sent to harm his Motherland.
HURIWA queried if Uzodinma is from another planet because he is unaware that Fulani terrorists have invaded forest reserves in Imo and neighboring states in Igbo land to carry out their plan to forcibly evict Igbo people from their lands.
