Eldest son of Senator Bala Na’Allah has been killed.
Captain Abdulkarim Bala Na’Allah was found dead in his bedroom at his Malali home in Kaduna on Sunday.
Na’Allah (Kebbi South, APC) is a ranking senator and chairman of Senate Committee on Air force.
Security sources said the 36-year-old pilot, who married recently, was tied and strangled to death.
The gunmen took away his vehicle and personal belongings.
Senator Na Allah’s spokesperson, Garba Mohammed, said the assailants had gained entrance to the house through the roof behind the house and entered his section through the ceiling.
He said a guard in a neighbour’s house had noticed the gate of the deceased home opened and raised the alarm which led to the discovery of the remains of the pilot.
