 Police Foil Bandits’ Attack in Kebbi


 Personnel of No. 36 Squadron of the Police Mobile Force (PMF) in Birnin Kebbi have recorded another significant breakthrough in their sustained efforts to rid Kebbi State of banditry, kidnapping, and other violent crimes.


On 29 November 2025, armed bandits in large numbers invaded Zodi Village, Zuru LGA, and rustled an unspecified number of livestock.


In a statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Nafi’u Abubakar Kotarkoshi, the personnel promptly deployed to restore peace, engaging the assailants in sporadic gunfire. Many bandits were neutralised, while others fled into the forest with fatal gunshot wounds.


CSP Kotarkoshi added that a subsequent search recovered two motorcycles, 96 cows, and 45 sheep. 


The livestock were handed over to the village head of Zodi for safe return to their rightful owners, while the motorcycles were handed to the Divisional Police Officer, Zuru, for further investigation and identification of the owners.
