Umar Moriki, a senior figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Zamfara State, has been reportedly killed by suspected armed bandits.
The attack occurred on Saturday morning along the Gusau–Tsafe highway, near Fegi village in Tsafe Local Government Area, while Moriki was traveling from Gusau to Kaduna. The state chapter of the APC, led by Tukur Danfulani, confirmed his death, describing it as a major loss for both the party and the state.
Yusuf Idris, Publicity Secretary of the Zamfara APC, said Moriki had just attended a stakeholders’ meeting hosted by the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, before the attack took place.
Moriki held several significant positions throughout his political career, including Vice Chairman of Zurmi Local Government Area, Director-General of a state agency, and Special Adviser on Rural Electrification. He also contested the Zurmi/Shinkafi House of Representatives seat in the 2023 elections.
He was 62 years old and is survived by three wives and multiple children. The APC described him as a committed party leader and respected community figure who devoted his life to public service and humanitarian work.
