Zamfara Government has summoned an emergency meeting with Fulani leaders over attack on an outpost in which nine soldiers were killed in Sunke village of Anka local government area.

Senior Special Assistant to Governor Bello Matawalle on Security Matters, Alhaji Abubakar Dauran, told newsmen in Gusau on Saturday that the meeting was to forestall future occurrence.



He however did not say when the meeting will be held.

News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Suru attack is the first major security breach since the government initiated dialogue with bandits in the state.

Dauran confirmed that Thursday’s attack left some soldiers and the attackers dead, while those injured were admitted in Federal Medical Center, Gusau for proper medical attention.

According to him, the attackers were from Niger state.



“Following the good relationship and understanding established with the bandits which led to their repentance in Zamfara, I can assure you that those attackers are not from Zamfara.

“Immediately after the attack, we reached out to the Fulani leaders in the state who confirmed to us that none of their members participated, but we have summoned a meeting with them to forestal reoccurance,” he said.

Some eye witnesses who spoke to NAN on condition of anonymity, said the bandits that attacked the joint security outpost numbered over 200, riding motorcycles.

Fulani militia are gradually taking over Nigeria.

Say no to crime.

N.a. wao

Pls we need actions.....enof of the meetings already. This Fulani issue is tormenting

What a shock nobody did anything. They're good guys who repented, dont worry about their criminal history.

This reminds me of a fulani terrorist calmly wielding an AK-47 rifle in the prescence of Gov.Masari + a local army brigade commander during a so called "peace meeting" in a forest in Kastina without him being arrest or interrogated.Anarchy and evidence of a failed state all over Nigeria esp.in the core north.

I saw the video of the departing fulani bandits being cheered on by the local population after their operation but not with any iota of shock or pity.They deserve what they got.

According to him, the attackers were from Niger state.

THEY ALWAYS TELL US THE ATTACKERS ARE FROM NIGER OR CHAD!

THEN THE MYETTI ALLAH WILL ALSO DENY THE ATTACK THUS:

I can assure you that those attackers are not from Zamfara AND THEY ARE NOT OUR MEMBERS!

THEN FEW DAYS LATER - MYETTI ALLAH WILL BE THE ONES COLLECTING RANSOMS ON BEHALF OF THE ATTACKERS!

THE TRUTH IS - NORTHEAST AND NORTHWEST ARE NOW TOTALLY OWNED AND CONTROLLED BY THE TERROR GROUP MYETTIALLAH.

THEY ARE NOW WORKING TOWARDS TOTAL CAPTURE OF THE ENTIRE MIDDLE BELT - AND I CANT SEE THEM FAILING IN THEIR QUEST.

If they like they should give them any name they want.
Branches of bh that want to collect like others.

Let what they nurtured consume them all.


We have forgotten so quick. Nobody from the north ever condemn them except us from the south.

When their training ground was discovered in kaduna, their parents objected.

If they like they should set both their houses on fire.

Their problems.

Imagine the governor exonerating them and I should feel for them

North problem zamfara headache. I'm in Lagos let fulani come to my house then I will know they have gain momentum. Useless people shithole called Nigeria.

They had initially achieved some peace in zamfara

So Soldiers no sabi revenge again? If these killings were done in the South, dem for dey show themselves.
