The Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) has said it killed two Igbo businessmen over the weekend..
The incident happened in Kano state.
The terrorists had on Saturday night killed the duo around Azubros Plaza, off France Road, Sabongari in Kano.
The deceased are Ifeanyi Elechukwu, aged 41, who was the target of the attack and his friend, Chibuille Emmanuel, 33, who was shot in the leg, but eventually died at a private clinic in the state capital.
Elechukwu, a battery dealer, was said to have been lured to his shop by one of the gunmen, who pretended to be a customer. He was shot at close range and killed while his friend was chased and also shot.
However, ISWAP in a statement said the attack was carried out by “soldiers of the caliphate”.

ISWAP had claimed expansion into Abuja, Kogi, and Taraba in the last six months.
