The spokesman of the Sokoto state police command, El-Mustapha Sani, has disclosed that Moin Amsuri, a Lebanese who spent 30 years of his life teaching mathematics in different schools in Sokoto state, has been murdered by unknown gunmen on Thursday.

“The deceased was suspected to have been killed by gunmen who are right now at large. The incident was said to have occurred on Thursday at his residence in Yauri flats, Sokoto, and it was reported to the Gwiwa Police Station on the same day. We are suspecting that the assailants were armed robbers as his Toyota car is still missing.”
