The attack reportedly took place around two o’clock in the evening in five villages.

Confirming the attack, a community leader in one of the villages, who did not want his name mentioned for security reason alleged that the bandits have resumed attacks with full force in some villages in the local government while calling on governments and security agencies to come to their aid to ameliorate their hardship.

He however alleged that they were in the last two weeks under seige by bandits as the situation had worsened.

Also confirming the attack, Senator representing Niger East Senatorial District, Mohammed Sani Musa exppressed concern that the bandits had resumed attacks in four local government councils of Rafi, Paikoro, Munya and Shiroro that form part of his constituency.
