The Bauchi State Police Command has declared a House of Representatives member, Yakubu Abdullahi Shehu wanted for alleged murder.
He is alleged to be behind the death of Hussaini Musa Gwaba, APC chairman in Bauchi.
The chairman had received series of threats before he was finally murdered.
A bounty of N1 million was, therefore, placed on the lawmaker representing Bauchi federal constituency.
Shehu was elected on the platform of the Peoples Redemption Party (PDP) but defected to All Progressives Congress (APC).
