From Noah Ebije, Kaduna

Armed bandits on Saturday attacked and killed four persons in Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna, the state government has said.

The bandits also reportedly killed two people and injured eight others in Giwa Local Government Area, according to the Commissioner of Internal security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan.

‘Security agencies have reported that armed bandits attacked Maskoro community of Kakau Ward, and Akunakwo of Gwagwada Ward, both in Chikun Local Government Area,’ he said.

‘According to the report, two persons were killed in Maskoro, identified as Nehemiah Ishaku and Yunana Mai-Mulo. Two persons were similarly killed in Akunakwo, identified as Haruna Dogo and Danjuma Jagaba.

‘In a separate incident, between Hayin Inji and Kidandan town in Giwa Local Government, armed bandits attacked and killed one Alhaji Yahuza Jinaidu in a bid to dispossess him of his motorcycle.

‘Also in Giwa Local Government Area, at ‘Yan Rake, Galadimawa, bandits wielding sophisticated weapons opened fire injuring nine persons.

‘One of these victims, Kabiru Lado, eventually died as he was being rushed to the hospital. Others are receiving treatment, with some having been discharged.

‘Governor Nasir El-Rufai expressed deep sadness at these reports and prayed for the repose of the souls of the slain while sending his condolences to their families. He urged security agencies to ramp up responses to curb such attacks.

‘Meanwhile, investigations are ongoing into the incidents, as vigorous patrols continue in the general areas,’ the commissioner stated.
