The bandits, who also razed several homes, killed one person and abducted at least nine others, disappearing with valuable items in the process.

At 12:30 am, the bandits unleashed a terrifying attack, storming the community and firing shots indiscriminately to spread fear among residents, eyewitnesses recounted.

When contacted to confirm the attack, the Katsina State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Abubakar Sadiq, said he “can’t talk now” in an SMS.
