Men of the Nigerian military engaged bandits in a gunfire, foiling attempted abduction of a popular herdsman and his family in Igabi Local Government Area of Kaduna State, Samuel Aruwan said on Friday.

In a statement made available to the press, Mr Aruwan, the state’s Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, said one of the brigands was killed during the exchange.

“Troops and police operatives in the early hours of Friday, May 7, engaged armed bandits in the Rigachikun axis of the Kaduna-Zaria dual carriageway in Igabi LGA,” the commissioner narrated.

“The bandits had earlier attacked a Fulani settlement belonging to a popular herder, Damina Kukumake, at Kukumake village.

“The bandits who kidnapped some members of the herder’s family, also rustled several cattle and were making their escape when security agencies received a distress call.

“The security personnel comprising troops of the army and air force, as well as police operatives, made contact with the bandits as they attempted to cross the Kaduna-Zaria expressway.

“In the fierce gun duel, a notorious bandit was neutralised while many other bandits escaped with bullet wounds.

“During the gunfight, the abducted hostages escaped and the rustled cattle scattered.

“After a check, the remaining cattle were recovered as some were confirmed to have been killed in the skirmish.”

Mr Aruwan said the troops and police operatives were now combing the general area in a clearance operation.

Troops in gunfight with bandits, rescue abducted Fulani herdsmen, rustled cows
You see the effort Buhari and Nigeria Army orchestrated just to rescue Fulani herdsmen and their cows?

Why can't they channel such efforts to rescue abducted school children kidnapped by same bandits?


Something fishy is truly going on.

Yes, I can see the people who will call this 'bias' towards the Fulanis...so I will say this

The reason why you are seeing too many fulanis down south is because bandits and boko haram in the North are making life difficult for them...so they migrate down south and cause palaver for Southern farmers

So, when the Army fights bandits up North...they are indirectly and hopefully protecting the South from more fulanis coming in


And anyway, the solution is ranching up North and railways.

you must be joking to say NA is indirectly protecting the South from Fulanis.

We don't even need their protection. They should protect themselves first.

...

Before you say anything...I don't support herdsmen or any side, and in my last line...you will see I back railways, and ranches up North as the solution...railways to transport the cows and ranches to keep the cows in the North so that at the end of the day, no more roaming, and no cows to eat anyone's farm, and no Fulani takeover.

Infact, we need to modernize the whole agro sector in this country self. So that we can start exporting stuff like milk and leather...we used to export leather in the 1960's well well, now we don't.

The whole bandit thing is making life difficult for everyone. And the sooner it is stopped, the better.

Thank you and good morning.

Maybe. But if the banditry up North is not stopped, more and more fula are going to migrate down South.

And there would be more issues with farms being wrecked and criminal activity

See why the cops need to be up and doing.

The world is interlinked. Whether you like it or not. Bad stuff happening miles away can affect your area in five years, or days. It's part of human history

(And my saying this does not mean I hate your tribe, or think that Biafra is not 'right' or that I support fulanis attacking other people, or that I like this government....I don't. But most of the problems we have are as a result of people not doing their jobs)

Enugu governor made a distress call and he was kept on hold for four hours because the lives of Igbos don't matter to them. In fact they were aware of the attacks but here we see them responding even faster than any emergency service in Nigerian history just because it was a fulani herdman that was attacked. Is it not obvious even to the fools supporting the terrorist government? Where was such response when Tivs were massacred in Benue state? How can any reasonable human being not be able to see things for what they are? Tueh!

Is it the same bandits that are hobnobbing with Sheik Gumi or another ones we don't know about? Don't let them deceive you. They are all in cahoot with the plan. It is just that once in a while some of those bandits go outside the original plan which is what worries the terrorist government. It is all a grand plan.
