The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has disputed the Zamfara State Police Command claim that a joint security team overpowered some bandits.<\/p>\n

Spokesperson for the police command, Muhammad Shehu, had said that on October 28, joint Police\/Civil Defence operatives deployed along Kaura Namoda\u2013Shinkafi Road were ambushed by suspected bandits who came in a large number.<\/p>\n

WITHI NIGERIA had reported that Shehu said after several hours of engaging the heavily armed bandits in a gun duel, \u201cSome of the assailants were neutralised while others escaped<\/a> with possible gunshot wounds.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, narrating what happened, the NSCDC said the bandits<\/a>, numbering about 150 and with \u201cheavy weaponry\u201d, had \u201cengaged operatives in exchange of fire.\u201d<\/p>\n

NSCDC spokesperson, Ikhor Oche, noted in the statement that the team of the joint security forces were overpowered even after it got reinforcement.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the same, one of the NSCDC personnel, a driver, was killed while other officers had to run for cover. The bandits set the vehicle ablaze<\/a> along with corpse of the personnel, and while returning to Shinkafi one personnel also got missing.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring NSCDC\u2019s search, the missing person<\/a> was found dead and right now his corpse is on its way to Maru, his hometown.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis brings to two, the number of NSCDC personnel that died in the attack. I cannot ascertain the extent of what happened to men of the other security agency, but it equally recorded losses,\u201d the spokesperson stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
