General Shuwa And His Visitor Killed By Gunmen

 Yesterday, unknown gunmen suspected to be terrorists killed Major General Mamman Shuwa, rtd, shortly before he left for the Mosque for Jumat prayers in Borno State.

The Defence Headquarters promptly blamed Boko Haram for the killing saying Gen Shuwa was shot dead at his house in Gwange 1 area of Maiduguri while the General was receiving guests preparatory to going for Juma’at prayers adding that “one of the guests died on the spot while the General died on the way to the University of Maiduguri Teaching Hospital,” contrary to insinuations that ‘’Shuwa was shot along with five JTF soldiers.”
