ā€œI reached out to the local government authorities and security agencies and I am sure they are doing something about it,ā€ he said.

Our reporter also gathered that bandits attacked and killed three persons at Turba village in Isa Local Government Area of the state, including the village head.

A member representing, Isa Constituency, Habibu Modachi who confirmed the incident, believed it was a reprisal after security operatives raided banditsā€™ hideouts two days ago.
