The gunmen also abducted a yet-to-be ascertained number of people.

There are fears that several mobile policemen might have been killed late on Tuesday evening after terrorists, otherwise known as bandits, attacked a security checkpoint in Katsina State.

SaharaReporters gathered that the incident happened along Sheme- Kankara road in the Kankara Local Government Area of the state around 11pm.

Some residents were said to have been killed from stray bullets as the policemen engaged the terrorist numbering over 300 in a fierce battle.

The gunmen also abducted a yet-to-be ascertained number of people.

Katsina, despite being the home state of President Muhammadu Buhari, has witnessed sporadic attacks by bandits and kidnappers that have claimed the lives of many.

Over 700 people have been reportedly killed by the gunmen in Jibia, Kankara, Dutsinma, Musawa, Danmusa and Safana local government areas of the state in the last five months.

On December 11, 2020, some bandits kidnapped 344 students of Government Science Secondary School, Kankara. They were released about a week later.

Also on December 19, 84 Islamiyya students of Hizburrahim Islamiyya in Mahuta village, Dandume Local Government Area of the state were abducted but rescued shortly after.

“Buhari will take charge of the security” crew, where nna dey.
The 4th tier of the government is running riot o

God please help our security men, Because bubu don't really care about there lives

Can you imagine? Our almighty DSS will not uncover this one but if it is a protest about fuel price now they will quickly uncover it, life doesn't have value to this government again but all that concerns our president now is convention and commissioning of fertilizer plant. May God help us in Nigeria

IPOB and ESN should be arrested immediately for this. Igbos are the reason this happened, without Ipob such wouldn't have happened. I plead with our president to do all he can to arrest all IPOB members. He should make sure that police and army are not deploy to the north that is ravaged by bandits , Boko Haram and Iswap because the real problem lies in south east. All the police and army in the country should be send to south east . Ndi Ara.

These IPOB meth cannibals have gone too far this time

Bubu no go summoned de gomina.
Pathetic fellow.

Just imagine how Nigeria policemen has been rendered useless and powerless by rampaging Fulani bandits in Buhari's home State and the idiot could not summon the Governor for briefing and security deployments where necessary ...

It doesn't matter

I can't cry more than Buhari and Masari

And more troops will never be deploy to Katsina by the useful idiot
But if it is somewhere around east now, batalions and platoon will be deployed immediately.
As if policemen lives in Katsina no matter.
The last time I check Katsina is someone's home state.

Mhen I don't know what those politicians are trying to accomplish by sponsoring those attrocities......

APC nah big scam....

If you like, carry your big head go vote for them....

General's Boys doing what they know best.

Good!

If these useless animals don't think they need to be trained to keep security and tactical formations, and all they know is tormenting and extorting the poor and motorists with guns paid for with public funds, then let them be killed and slaughtered like Xmas chicken.

Well done, Bandits!

Ok

And BUHARI not concerned

Buhari will take care of security

Osinbajo will handle economy

Hmmmmm

Lai Mohammed: Buhari would retire to his farm after May 2023...
Buhari:

sai baba, these are the right target not civilians

While Buhari is busy sending more troops to the East, his region that needs it is beyond redemption.

After his tenure as the most useless Nigerian president, he will have no home or village again.
