The Impacthive Centre for Accountability, Democracy and Rights (ICADAR) condemned the killing of Islamic cleric Sheikh Yahaya Masussuka, who was shot dead by suspected gunmen outside his residence in Dutsin-Ma Local Government Area, Katsina State. ICADAR's Executive Director, Bello Ishaq, described Masussuka as a respected religious leader dedicated to promoting peace, interfaith dialogue, and tolerance.
His death is seen as a significant loss to his family, congregation, and community. ICADAR stated that no disagreement can justify taking a human life and emphasized the need for a thorough, impartial investigation into the circumstances of his killing.
