At least 30 people have been killed by armed bandits who raided a village in Zamfara, police, and residents said Tuesday.

Motorcycle-riding gunmen attacked Kware village in Shinkafi district on Sunday night, opening fire on residents and burning homes.

“I can confirm 30 people were killed by the bandits in the attack in Kware,” Zamfara police spokesperson Mohammed Shehu told AFP.

Residents, however, gave a higher toll of 34, with many others still missing.

“We recovered 34 bodies after the attack and many more residents have not been ed for,” said Kware resident Alu Wadatau said.

“They came around 4:00 pm and opened fire on the village, shooting anyone on sight and burning houses,” he said.


The attack came just three days after bandits killed 32 vigilantes in Kware, at a checkpoint set up by locals, police, and residents had told AFP.

The vigilantes were part of a militia force providing security for traders in the area, with besieged communities taking security into their own hands.

Deadly attacks have raged across the northwest where bandits have thrived.

Farming and herding communities in Zamfara and the wider region have long been terrorised by gangs who raid villages, stealing cattle and kidnapping residents for ransom.

Last week some 60 people died in multiple raids on rural villages in Zamfara and Sokoto State.

The repeat attacks on rural villages, often with little protection from security forces, have spurred a rise in armed vigilante groups.

Yet the groups have been accused of extrajudicial killings of suspected bandits, leading to reprisals and escalating insecurity.

In recent months the criminal gangs launched attacks in neighboring Kaduna and Katsina states, abducting residents for ransom.

On Saturday five villagers were killed in clashes with bandits in Sabon Sara village in Kaduna state’s Giwa district near the border with Zamfara, according to the police and residents.

Zamfara is a political stronghold for President Muhammadu Buhari, who won the state in recent presidential elections that handed him a second four-year term.

He has pledged to continue confronting Nigeria’s many security crises while giving few details.

You blamed the armed banditry along Abuja-Kaduna Expressway on innocent Southern Kaduna.

You exempted Northern moslems from prostitution.

Fake news.
Nigeria has been very safe since Buhari took over.
Infact Nigeria is now so safe that unlike in 2015 elections,in 2019,more votes were recorded in terrorists ravaged states of Borno,Yobe than in peaceful states like Lagos,Oyo,Ekiti,Osun and all SouthEastern states.
Buhari is doing a great job security wise.
Zamfarans should be patient.Buhari always likes lots of people to be killed and terrorists to occupy an entire state before he acts.

A nation that daily sacrifice human blood!

And the upgraded version of "Next Level" continues.Zamfara people blood continued to be shed while their son remains the Minister of Defense.What an irony.

APCer:


Most prostitutes in Northern Nigeria are from the south east.

The bandits in Kaduna south are Christians. Even El'rufa'i mentioned that but i never said the killings in Zamfara or Boko haram people are Christian

But are there muslim prostitutes in the North?

I don't know why you guys feel so insecured about Northern christians despite have an overwhelming population. The Kaduna-Abuja road didn't even through southern Kaduna.

The hotbed of the kidnappers in Birnin Gwari axis of the road and all the kidnappers and armed robbers that were arrested along that road all bear moslem names and have fulani stature.

Birnin Gwari is at the outskirt of Kaduna Central Senatorial District (that is, about NW of Kaduna State). Do you know how many LGAs you have to from Southern Kaduna before you get to Birnin Gwari, do you know how many hours, how many miltary check points and formations?

Both of us know that if Southern Kaduna are the ones terrorizing that road, El Rufai would have leveled them by now?

You need help. Remove innocent Christians from una insanity.

Prostitution is not a crime. Its better than suicide bombing

Nice one

NEXT LEVEL... THE PLAN IS TO ALLOW THE FULANI TAKE OVER

You seem to lack comprehension.

You talked about those in Abuja-Kaduna way and i told you that those ones are done by Kaduna south people. SARS arrests them everyday and we see the names. and yes, El'rufa'i severly threatened them the last time he visited Sabon Tasha

I never said christians are responsible for the violence in other parts of the north. And by the way, Its not as if you people are not violent as well. Just yesterday, A cultist was caught for beheading his fellow human being.

As for the Muslim prostitutes, i have a deal for you. I will show you 4 reports of prostitutes being arrested in the north amd you will find a muslim name for me. If you can't, then get a report showing A muslim woman caught doing prostitution. Agreed?
