It was reported that the gunmen broke into the Bannga residence of the late Hon. Ishaya, a representative of Gudu Mboi Ward at the early hours of Saturday. The assailants shot and killed him on the left immediately after they committed the act which led to the belief that the death was a target of assassination.
