A seven-month-old baby called Habibu was found asleep on his mother’s back 24 hours after she was killed by bandits on the Pandogari-Allawa route in Niger State’s Shiroro Local Government Area. He said, “Miraculously, the baby was one of the survivors of the attack in which six people were killed. Vigilantes who went the following day to evacuate the remains of the victims found the baby sleeping on his dead mother’s back,” Allawa said. Maryam called and informed us that she was coming home for the Sallah. We told her to stay back in school and celebrate the Sallah there but she insisted that she wanted to come home and celebrate with us.”READ ALSO FROM NIGERIAN TRIBUNE
