Bandits, on Wednesday, swooped on two communities and left no fewer than 23 people dead in Niger State.

At least, 12 people were abducted while eight were seriously injured.

In Dukku town in Rijau Local Government Area, about 17 members of the local vigilantes were ambushed and killed by the bandits.

The vigilantes were said to be on the trail of the bandits, who had occupied Iri forest and launching attacks on the community when they were ambushed. The local vigilantes, however, killed three of the bandits.

The incident occurred at 6pm, about the same time another group of bandits launched a full scale war on Kagara, Rafi Local Government Area.

A source close to Dukku community said the plan to attack the bandits was leaked by an informants which resulted in the bandits ambushing the men of the vigilante in the forest.

Chairman of Rijau council, Bawa Bello, confirmed the attack.

“Yes, it happened. We killed some of the bandits and the bandits killed some of our men. I have submitted a written report to the commissioner for local government who is our boss. He should give you the details,” Bello said.

In a related development, gunmen attack Kagara town in Rafi local government, leaving six people killed.

About 12 others were abducted and a commercial bank robbed.

Chairman of the council, Ismaila Modibo, confirmed that about eight people were injured.

Modibo, however, said the bandits’ attempt to steal money from a first generation bank in the town was foiled.

Deputy Governor, Ahmed Mohammed Ketso, accompanied by the Commissioner of Police, Adamu Usman, have visited the area.

Meanwhile, Governor Abubakar Sani Bello, has appealed to the people “to remain calm as government is on top of the security situation in the state.

A statement by the media aide said the governor acknowledged the enormity of the security challenges facing the state and assured that “the state in active collaboration with President Muhammadu Buhari and the security agencies remain undaunted in its war against the lower societal elements making life miserable for the people.”

Nawa oo for this country

This Niger is gradually becoming something else, this is too bad and heartless on the part of the bandits,I just wish God will arrest them one day and make them suffer all they have done to people.

Same ugly trending news everyday but Buhari is busy hiking prices of everything. People are dying of hunger and instead of life to be made easy for the poor, Buhari is pouring more fuel into the fire.

Take a good look at Nigeria and everything that's happening here.

He's very much interested,if we give him the chance to make things right.

COWARDS. Why are they running from The deployed securities to their former base. Sad though. Security Should swipe into action in Niger.

Citizens in volatile areas should be given permission or license to have a weapon at least for self protection

From North east to North central..... Then to South...

Who has noticed it's coming down slowly?

From borno to katsina to kaduna to Niger to were else it will come....

God won't do anything you are supposed to do... The same God of France is the same God of America and Nigeria... He gave them the same brains he gave us... But we are more interested in going to heaven without dieing...
While the rest of the world focuses on bettering life..and keeping it in mind that they will die one day.. they make life better here and also strive to make sure when they die they make it to heaven..

Una mumu will never do ,

South Wa.ste that's supporting the killing of Igbos by the useless blood tasty clueless nepotic government?
Don't support evil because you may be a victim of the evil you supported

good

But to me i'd have said a member of a group of people elected or appointed (as the case my be) to take care of the interest if his people....in a layman's language I'd say a person choosed by the people to serve the people..

Now the phrase serve means "servant"
Choosen is the act of "democracy"

These people or persons are overpaid servants charged with putting the resources of the people into good use and creating riches for the people using the resources that the people have. they are charged with making sure the already put in place resources like health care and security are used to the utmost length to make sure this resiurces are used to the Betterment of the people (the real owners).

Meaning that instead of a man drilling the oil in his land by himself.. the community put one person in control to drill everyone's oil, sell the oil and use the money for the betterment of everyone .. including the poor.. that's why even poor men in the US use iPhone 11.. but you who isn't poor by all standards can you afford an iPhone 11 and still live comfortably?
And when the people feel the person they put on top of them isn't doing what he is supposed to do... They are to come out peace fully and protest, while doing this the other arms of the government who are independent of each other but stringed into each other go into meetings and see if what the people (who they are part of) are saying is true..if it is they start the process of removing the leader..

Now the security apparatus attached to any government official is not meant for his protection but for the protection of the office he carries....



Heres the problem with Nigeria...
We see the people we elect as gods...
That's why the when a government uses you ur own money to build roads for you, you come out dance and praise the Government.. because you don't see the road as your right, you see the road as the government remembering you...When in fact the governor is just doing what he is elected to do...


Ask yourself this question, does the president or governor see himself as a servant?, Does he work for the betterment of everyone? Is he no partisan and impartial?

Our problem is not God.. it's us we are cowards...
We are forced and killed to vote..
We are forced to shut up
We are forced to suffer while the people we elect are using our money to better only themselves...
