Sadiq said that the command had also contacted the Commissioner for Education, and the Zonal Director of education, who assured the police that the rumor was false. “We are surprised to read the story online that the principal had been killed by unknown gunmen.”
“The command wish to state that the principal in question is currently organizing a naming ceremony”.
The PPRO called on the members of the public to disregard the publication as the handwork of mischief makers, adding that some disgruntled elements were out to cause disaffection among the residents of Katsina.
Rumors about the assassination of Isyaku for releasing the certificate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate has been trending in the social media.
