EKOHOTBLOG scores of residents have been feared dead following an attack by unknown gunmen on Ma-Dooh village in the Zangon Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
It was gathered that the assailants also razed houses while three persons were hospitalized as a result of the attack.
A source in the village disclosed that the gunmen stormed the area at about 11pm and attacked the residents who were all asleep.
It was further learnt that no fewer than 15 people were killed by the gunmen.
