Atsi Kefas, the sister of Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas, has tragically passed away after being shot by armed robbers.
The incident occurred last Thursday along Kente Road in the Wukari Local Government Area, where Atsi was traveling with her mother, Jumai Kefas.
During the attack, a police officer assigned to escort the family accidentally shot Atsi while attempting to fend off the assailants.
Atsi was initially treated at the Federal University Teaching Hospital in Wukari before being transferred to a private hospital in Abuja for specialized care.
Unfortunately, she succumbed to her injuries on Monday night. The governor and his family have yet to release an official statement regarding her passing.
