Suspected bandits have attacked Yar Nasarawa community in Faskari local government area of Katsina State, killing six persons, including a traditional ruler.

The attackers also burnt houses, vehicles and abducted about 38 residents of the area.

A credible source, who is a resident of the area, said about 10 persons also sustained various degrees of injuries, while eight commercial vehicles, six houses and shops were burnt in the community that is less than five kilometres from the Army Super Camp in Faskari local government area.

Residents said the terrorists abducted about 38 residents, including women and children and left 10 residents with gunshot injuries.

He said, “The assailants came prepared, I have never seen them in such number.”

An eyewitness, Auwal Liman, also said that he narrowly escaped to the bush during the attack. He explained that while some bandits were shooting indiscriminately, others were setting vehicles and buildings ablaze.

“We are in a sorrowful situation, we can’t go to the farm. And even when we decided to stay off from our farms and local markets, the terrorists still follow us to our communities and kill us. Our lives hardly matter,” he lamented.

Findings revealed that the terrorists stormed the community around 11pm and blocked all entry and exit points to ward off from the military and of the Community Watch Corps in the area.

The State Police Command’s spokesperson, Abubakar-Sadik Aliyu, confirmed the attack but did not provide the details.

He said, “The Commissioner of Police, Aliyu Musa, had since deployed the command’s tactical, operational and intelligence to the scene, and currently combing the surrounding bushes for the possible arrest of the perpetrators for diligent prosecution.”

Yar Nasarawa is less than five kilometres away from the Army Super Camp in Faskari. The camp was established by a former Chief of Army Staff, General Tukur Buratai, in 2018.

There are two sets of comments that have vanished from Nigerian cyber space.

1. Comments against Japa.
2. Comments against ObiDatti.

Even those that were attacking obedients have lost their voices. From Chimaroke Nnamani to Orji Uzo Kalu, Prof Wole Soyinka to Assri Dokubo, all have gone mute. I pity my generation, we went to school, came out and most of us have to hustle for job or something to get by, what kind of Nigeria are we going to leave for our Children?

The evil they once covered has grown so big that it has started covering them....people that trains anaconda ends up becoming the anacondas food.

This was the type of stunt the stupid asari dokubo was paid to carry out in the east, and the ancestors of the GREAT IGBOS decimated his future and present.....now he is no where to be found and his power has drastically reduced to shit.

Go to the east the entire armoury of the Nigerian army, police, air force, navy, Dss, customs, nafdac, nscdc and red beret are all over the place constituting newsance and harassing my people, but you know what their own families are being decimated from morning till night in the north, west and middle belt.....you bite the people you love to hate and still feel the pains.

No one should call Tinubu's name oooo.

This one is literally on Buhari. That is his state and it happened in his backyard. That's the result of playing hide and seek with bandits for 8 years.

Blame Tinubu for the kidnapping happening in the other 35 states, but this Katsina own, make Bubu use am rub body.

Repentant Bokoharam torrosists in action.
I have no pithy for the North.
The evil they created is hunting them down.
Buhari as president for eight good years achieved nothing but nurtured his fellow funali terrorists and made torrorism a very attractive business for the vulnerable Alimangiri youth population in the North.
What do they expect.
You can't plant casava and harvest yarm.
They will learn the hard way.
