The Kuruma community in Bunkure Local Government Area of Kano State is reeling from the tragic discovery of seven-year-old Khalifa Saminu Saleh, whose lifeless body was found six days after he was reported missing.
According to reports from Punch, Khalifa's body was discovered at a canal in the community on Monday morning, April 8, 2024, sending shockwaves through the neighborhood.
The distressing disappearance of Khalifa prompted an extensive search effort led by concerned authorities and residents, with the incident reported to the Rano Police Station in Kano.
An anonymous resident shared insights into Khalifa's last known whereabouts, revealing that the young boy was on his way to the mosque to perform Salatul Tarawih prayers, a routine he faithfully observed due to the mosque's proximity to his family's home.

Khalifa's father, Alhaji Saminu Saleh, expressed profound shock and devastation over the sudden loss of his son. He called for thorough investigations to uncover the circumstances surrounding Khalifa's disappearance and subsequent demise, seeking justice for his beloved child.
