Tukur condemns murder of pilot, urges police to track killers
Former Deputy General Secretary of Airline Operators in Nigeria (AON), Alhaji Mohammed Tukur, has condemned the brutal murder of Abdulkarim Na’Allah, the eldest son of Senator Bala N’Allah of Kebbi State, last Sunday.
Tukur, who described the young pilot’s death as a big blow to the aviation industry, however, urged the security agencies to ensure that the culprits are apprehended to answer for their heinous crime.
He noted that the deceased possessed an exceptional skill stressing that it was gravely regrettable that the industry had to lose such a promising professional at a time aviation was experiencing high dearth of skilled manpower.
The young brilliant aircraft pilot was allegedly murdered in his home at Malali GRA in Kaduna Metropolis by yet to ascertain killers, who were said to have gained entry into his residence through the ceiling.
Tukur, however, disagreed that the murderers were bandits saying the way they carried out the killing suggested assassination and called on the security agencies to widen their dragnets to fish out the perpetrators.
He regretted the increasing criminality in the country and appealed to the security agencies to do more to secure lives and properties.
He, however, condoled with the family and prayed for the internal repose of the deceased’s soul
