Terrorists known locally as bandits are currently attacking Ayu, Danko Wasagu Local Government Area (LGA) of Kebbi State, POLITICS NIGERIA.
Bandits attacks in Kebbi state have been on the ascendancy in recent months.
Hundreds of the residents have fled their homes, relocating to other towns in the state and Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps.
Recall POLITICS NIGERIA had exclusively reported the bandits attack that occurred on January 14: 17 residents were brutally murdered and many more abducted in a punitive expedition.
Four days after the carnage of January 14 in Dankade, the bandits raided Ayu, and abducted 29 villagers into the forest.
Unlike cases in other North-west states, attacks in rural Kebbi are hardly reported in the media. Over 200 lives were lost to banditry in the state in 2021 alone, this newspaper’s findings revealed.
