Deputy Speaker of Taraba State
House of Assembly, Mr Adamu Tanko Maikarfi
weekend escaped being killed by unknown
assassins barely one week after the death of
the speaker, Mr Haruna Tsokwa. The assassins were said to have trailed him to a
certain location in Jalingo. Confirming the assassination attempt, the
Deputy Speaker said: “It is true that they came
wanting to kill me in my brother’s home. They got tips that I was there; when they came
they did not meet me, after they searched all
the rooms holding everyone at gunpoint. God
saved me and I thank God, they did not also kill
anyone in the house. Only the wife was
traumatized as they took her around the house searching for me.” He added that the security agencies in the
state were aware of the development, and that
he will continue to stand by the truth and will
not bow to any pressure to comprise his office.
