Bandits Attack Sokoto Villages, Kill 37 Over Refusal To Pay 'levies' by saintbillion(m): 6:35pm On Jun 04, 2023
About 37 people have reportedly been killed and many others injured in attacks on three communities in Tangaza Local Government Area of Sokoto State over their alleged refusal to pay the ‘levies’ imposed by the terrorists.

Sources in one of the communities said the terrorists also dispersed sympathisers who came to perform burial rites for the deceased.

According to Daily Trust, the communities attacked are Raka, Raka Dutse, and Filin Gawa.

Witnesses told the publication that the bandits attacked the communities on Saturday evening, June 3, 2023.


The immediate past chairman of the area, Bashar Kalenjeni said 18 people were killed at Raka, 17 at Filin Gawa, and two at Raka Dutse.

“We wanted to bury them in the night, but the bandits came back and dispersed us. As at this morning, the deceased are still there unburied," Kalenjeni said.

According to him, the "offence" of the villagers was their refusal to pay levies imposed on their communities.

The bandits imposed levies on their communities, which was meant to take charge with immediate effect, and also dictating to residents on what to and not to do.

“But the villagers refused to succumb and because of that they attacked them, killing 37 persons while several others sustained various degrees of gunshot injuries and currently receiving treatment at General Hospital, Gwadabawa,” he said.

"There are others who are still unaccounted for. Right now, we are waiting for security operatives to lead us to the villages in order to bury the dead ones,” he added.

Some tell me why Bandits are charging levels in a country where people are hoping to get recruited on the Russian or Ukraine side ... Maybe we should have Private Military Contractors too.

Fulani really deals with Hausa in a northern state. If you can't fight back, nobody will fight for you. Don't come and tell me that Hausa and Fulani are one. If they are one, you can not be killing your people and enforce the taxes on the farmers in the village.

Stop hiding behind political parties....

The question is why you harp more on the few killings in the SE and mention ipod more than you mention Fulani herdsmen or BH that have killed thousands. That is the question...you vile evil hypocrites fail to answer.

See who was complaining about killings in the east. U only remember insecurity when it happens in the east. U only write epistles when it happens in the east but now it is north, u can't complain or write epistles. One lgbo life equal 1,000,000 northern life
