Traditional Ruler, Others Killed In Zamfara by ghettodreamz(m): 12:39pm On Oct 31, 2012
Gunmen suspected to be armed robbers have killed 20 people in Kaboro village in Zamfara state northwest Nigerian. Local Government spokesman, Nuhu Salihu Anka, said on Wednesday.

12 men armed with guns stormed Kaboro village early on Tuesday morning, demanding money before shooting and hacking people to death, local residents said.

After several people had been killed, the area’s chief appealed to the gunmen to stop firing, but they turned their weapons on him instead, according to the spokesman.

“They were all shot to death while the village head was slaughtered with a sword,” local government spokesman Salihu Anka told Reuters by phone.

At least 27 people were killed in June when suspected armed robbers attacked several villages in Zamfara.

This killing comes on the heel of Sunday’s attack on a Catholic Church in another north central state, Kaduna.

A suicide bomber drove a jeep full of explosives into a church in Kaduna, about 70 miles (113 km) from the Zamfara border, killing eight people and triggering reprisals that killed at least two more.

I always wonder where our security agents used to hide when such attrocity is taking place... or are the robbers using silenced gun that doesn't make any sound or non of the villagers have any security personel number to call... Really tired of this country, bad news everywhere.

Extreme wickedness. It's either our government helps us get rid of armed bandits or give us the right to be armed ourselves.

i thought as much but after reading the part which said a 'village chief' was also a victim i knew@ once the victims were muslims. Cos only a muslim can be a village chief in a state as islamic as Zamfara.

Na for north I hear that armed robbers would invade a whole village and start killing them after robbery. I can still remember the case where 12 were killed in kaduna on their way from morning prayer by armed robbers on reprisals attack.
These are aboki killing fellow aboki en mass because of robberies, why won't the now kill outsiders in their midst or invade a whole village in jos.
