Gunmen Massacre 50 In Zamfara - leadership newspaper by joeprince23(m): 7:04am On Feb 10, 2016
About 50 persons were reportedly killed on Saturday night
by a group of unknown gunmen suspected to be cattle
rustlers.
The armed bandits who besieged Kwanar Dutse community
under Maru local government area of Zamfara state also
razed half the number of houses in the community.
Witnesses said the gunmen attacked the community while
majority of the residents were asleep.
A resident, Salisu Musa, said the bandits came prepared to
wreak havoc.
“I rushed to the main entrance and peeped through a hole
and spotted many motorcycles, each loaded with three
persons armed with heavy rifles” he said.
He said he was horrified when he heard sporadic gunshots
followed by horrible wailing sounds of men, women and
children being killed in cold blood.
He said the gunmen operated till dawn without the
intervention of the military, the police or any other security
organ.
Though he could not ascertain the number of casualties,
Musa said from his estimation during the burial of the
deceased, ‘about 50 persons have lost their lives in the
attack.’
Another witness, Hamza Bula, said he was awoken by the
sounds of gunshots all over the community.
“I quickly realized that our community was under house to
house attack by insurgents.’’
He told our reporter that the insurgents moved from house
to house in a highly coordinated operation, killing everyone
in sight.
It was gathered that the death merchants, at the end of the
deadly operation, left unchallenged with an unspecified
number of cattle.
Meanwhile, the state police command, spokesperson, DSP
Sanusi Amiru, confirmed that only 12 people were killed in
the attack, adding that police and military squads have
been drafted in the area to restore peace and provide
security for the community.

It's high time that the activities of these marauding cattle rustlers are checkmated. Security agents have to penetrate these guys secretly, or else it snowballs into another monster.

Those cattle rustlers must be Igbos because the Igbos are always blamed for everything in this country.

Some people said that Igbos are behind boko haram, some said Igbos kidnapped Olu Fale, some even said that the herdsmen that are terrorising the MB are actually Igbos not fulani. I smh. embarassed embarassed embarassed
