 Gunmen Impose N172.7 Million Levy on 25 Zamfara Villages, Forcing Mass Displacement


Gunmen in Zamfara State have imposed a levy of N172.7 million on 25 villages in the Tsafe West area, causing widespread fear and prompting many residents to flee their homes. The attackers, reportedly led by notorious bandit leader Danisuhu, have also demanded in-kind contributions, such as soybeans, from the affected communities.

Despite improvements in security in some areas, rural villages remain vulnerable, and residents are urgently calling for government intervention.
