Kaduna — Police in a Kaduna say three gunmen have killed a man outside an uninhabited house belonging to Vice President Namadi Sambo.
Kaduna state police spokesman Abubakar Balteh said they killed a shoe-shiner and injured two policemen who were guarding Vice President Namadi Sambo's house Monday. He said the house was under renovation.
Balteh said rioters had burned down the house during post-election violence that swept across northern Nigeria after April 2011 presidential polls.
