Five chieftains of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have been reportedly abducted by bandits in Zamfara. 

According to Zagazola Makama, the APC members, who are all from Kaura Namoda LGA, were abducted on Saturday while travelling to the Marafa area of the state.

The abducted politicians were reportedly on their way to the residence of Abdulaziz Yari, the senator representing Zamfara West senatorial district, when the assailants ambushed their convoy.

Among those abducted are Yahaya Sani Dogon Kade, the chairman of Dan Isah ward, and Bello Dealer, the chairman of Sakajiki ward.

Yazid Abubakar, the Zamfara police command spokesperson, could not be immediately reached to confirm the attack.

On February 24, various bands of gunmen carried out numerous attacks in some communities in Gusau and Bukuyyum LGAs in the state.

During the attacks, bandits killed two residents and abducted many people from Kairu community in Zugu district.

Another group of assailants kidnapped six women at Shemori village, while a different set of gunmen abducted a woman and her one-year-old son in Mada town, Gusau LGA.
