He was shot on his farm, located around Rema area of Birnin-Gwari but was confirmed dead when he was taken to Jibril Mai-Gwari General Hospital on Thursday following the gun wounds he sustained from the bandits.<\/p>\n

A statement issued by the Chairman, Birnin-Gwari Emirate Progressives Union (BEPU), Ishaq Usman Kasai, confirmed the incident and expressed deep sorrow.<\/p>\n

According to the statement, Mal. Yakubu Bugai was a key figure in the Birnin-Gwari Orphans Foundation, dedicated to caring for thousands of orphans left behind by victims of armed banditry in the area.<\/p>\n

BEPU also recounted several incidents of abductions and kidnappings of innocent farmers in the local government area, saying that on Friday, July 21, 2023, bandits stormed Unguwar Bawa in Randagi Ward, kidnapping 28 people, including women and children.<\/p>\n

The union appealed to the Federal Government to the establishment of military detachments in Katakaki, Gagumi, Tashar-Keji, and Bugai axis of the Western part of Birnin-Gwari.<\/p>\n
