They surrendered everyone believing that the national secretary was in the bus, but to their disappointed their target man was nowhere to be found.

In that frustration they proceeded to the room where the committee members were about to meet and ordered everyone to lie flat, it was at this moment that one of the gun crazy assailants for unverifiable reason decided to shoot and kill the personal assistance of Alagbariya.
