KANO — The family of slain Kano political commentator, Ibrahim Khalil Dan Shagamu, has revealed that he repeatedly expressed fears for his life before he was found dead in his home in Gaida, Kumbotso Local Government Area of Kano State.

Dan Shagamu was found dead at his residence on Wednesday, with the circumstances surrounding his death still under investigation by the police.

Speaking to journalists on Wednesday, his sister, Halima, said her brother had stopped sleeping at his residence because he believed his life was under threat.

“He had alleged that some people were after his life, so he stopped sleeping at home. He stayed with a friend and avoided anywhere he sensed a threat,” she said.
