The slain cattle dealer was also the leader of the cattle dealers union known as Miyetti Allah in the cattle market in Bayelsa Palm area of Yenagoa , Bayelsa capital.
It was gathered that Abdukareem was killed along the Bayelsa Palm Road.
A witness who accompanied the corpses to the morgue of the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Yenagoa, said the four victims were killed within the premises of Abdulkareem’s private abattoir.
“The armed men invaded the place this afternoon and shot him. He is a very friendly person and indeed a household name because he is the largest supplier of cows in Bayelsa.
“The gunmen also turned to his boys and killed three of them. It is a sad development,” the source said.
The source said the motive behind the dastardly act remained unclear and would be uncovered by security agencies during their investigations.
