Rampaging terrorists fomenting crisis in Nigeria’s troubled North West region has again wreaked havoc in Kastina state. <\/p>\n
In a fresh attack on Danmusa LGA, the terrorists killed one Mallam Nabanje, The head of the vigilante group in the municipal, and also razed his house.<\/p>\n
Two people were also shot while the terrorists reportedly raped women during the attack.<\/p>\n
One of the locals and a fellow vigilante from Danmusa said the attack was more of a reprisal one as the hoodlums had earlier accused Nabanje of being responsible for the destruction of their enclaves.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cThe hoodlums arrived in the community in a large number and proceeded to the residence of our vigilante commander.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey blocked all routes to avoid him escaping. After a painstaking search, they found him under a tree where they engaged him in a gun duel until he ran out of ammunition and was rounded up when he sought refuge in a compound where he was butchered.\u201d<\/p>\n
Spokesman of Katsina Police Command, ASP Abubakar Sadiq confirmed the report though he said the report got to the police late due to downpour and poor network experienced on the day of the attack.<\/p>\n
He however said efforts were ongoing with a view to arresting the hoodlums.<\/p>\n
According to ASP Sadiq, the State Police Commissioner has since condoled with the family of the deceased.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
