Suspected bandits Monday night attacked several communities in Malumfashi council area of Katsina State.

A man identified as Umar Isah was killed during the attack.

Isah was, until his death, a lecturer at the School of Basic and Remedial Studies (SBRS), in Funtua.

Residents, who spoke with newsmen, said they heard several gunshots during the night on Monday, and that the shots were intermittent and lasted for hours.

It is, however, not clear how many communities were attacked or if there were casualties apart from the lecturer that was killed.

The incident came less than 24 hours after bandits attacked Tsauri, a community in Kafur council area where they shot one person, and raided several homes.

The victim, who was rushed to the Orthopedic Hospital in the state metropolitan area, lost his life and was buried according to Islamic rites.

The attack on Tsauri community, sadly, occurred same day with another attack by bandits on dozens of passengers travelling on the Jibia-Batsari road, in Batsari council area.

The bandits were said to have abducted several of the passengers who were travelling in two J5 buses, whisked them into the dreaded Fugue forest nearby.

But the police said they had swung into action and rescued all but seven of the abducted passengers.

The state, which had hitherto been enjoying relative peace following government dialogue with suspected bandits is currently facing insecurity resurgence.

The spokesman for the police command, SP Gambo Isah is yet to respond on the Malumfashi incident at the time of this report.

R.I.P to him

Killings everyday. Where is our Leaders?? Why is everything so hard in this country Until they kill everyone in this country before they come back to their senses?? No jobs, no light, standard of living is extremely low, poverty everywhere. Who do we offend in this country

Walahi I know him, He taught me that year in funtua. RIP

This country is not safe

Anywhere those extremists gathered there is always present of violent, death of innocents people and destruction.


Do Nigeria even have a president? I don't think so.

What we have is someone who just wants to answer Mr President.

RIP to the dead. I really wonder what happened to Katsina state, it used to be one of the friendliest and most accommodating states in the north. Did my NYSC there in 1997/98 and really enjoyed my stay there. The people were very nice, especially in Kaita LGA where I did my primary assignment and Dutse Ma (Orientation camp). I really wonder what went wrong, so sad.

Oya coman blame Buhari.

Many Nigerians just like pointing fingers. They don't want to accept their own fault.

You blamed GEJ and called him corrupt but you're in Computer Village selling fufu and fake charger for people. Yet, GEJ was the only problem Nigeria has not you.

You're blaming Buhari for poor development but you won't allow telecoms cables in your town until they settle you. Yet you're not corrupt, only the police is corrupt.

Stop pointing fingers at people, point your finger at yourself first. In fact, did you know? That every time you point a finger at someone, you're pointing four at yourself.

Don't change your ways. Keep expecting one Messiah to come and fix the country that you're raping.

I'll keep saying it; anybody that collected gift bribe from any politician in the last election and is now complaining of bad governance, may thunder fire his mouth. And I don't care whether your favourite party/candidate won or not. You're one of the problems that Nigeria needs to feed to her dogs in sambisa.

Nowhere is secure in Nigeria. Even our homes. God forbid for this country!!!

Hmmmmm!!!

This isn't the will of God for his people o!!!

RIP

Katsina very dead state but their girls fine die you go fûck tire just hold your pakalin for hand

This is serious.
May God rest his soul and comfort the bereaved family.

Killings left and right. Nigerians are gradually becoming endangered species.
