Gunmen have raided a police station in Zonkwa town, Zangon Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna State, killing at least two officers.

The incident, which occurred on Friday evening, left residents in a state of shock.

Eyewitnesses told Daily Trust that immediately the attackers stormed the station located a few meters from Kamyim Hotel, Kurmin-Bi Zonkwa, they started shooting sporadically.

They were said to be attempting to free some suspected vandals earlier arrested in Kachia town.

“They believed that the suspects were being detained at the Zonkwa Police Station.”

“However, it was later gathered that the suspects were not being held at the station. But the havoc had already been done,” the witness who said he did not want to be quoted told Daily Trust.

A security source also confirmed the incident to Daily Trust but did not go into details.

In a video of the incident seen by our correspondent, two officers in uniform were seen lifeless on the floor.

A crowd later gathered at the scene, discussing the incident which further highlights the worsening security situation in the country.

Normalcy is said to have been restored in the town.

The Kaduna State Police Command had not issued an official statement on the attack as of the time of filing this report.

They play good roles because they also kill, burn security personnel, and stations. Meanwhile, nobody says it is only them, but they are players.

WizardOfNG:
This is why the North is finished. Tragic news of mass killings everyday in the region to include murder of police and Army staff.

Yet their prominent leader like Atiku, El Rufai, Sule Lamido, Bala Mohammed, Tambuwal etal are only concerned about the presidency returning to the North.

When will all these guys, because they know the dynamics of issues and players involved, convene a security conference where Northern leaders will brainstorm an immediate way forward towards securing the North and thus Nigeria?

Never is the answer because they prefer their people dying if that can be used cynically to gaslight the current President out of office so a Fulani can be President. Do leaders like Atkku need the Presidency before they move to find solutions to improve security in the North?

Did Yorubas have the Presidency when their Governors, along with their cultural leaders and elite, stood together to form Amotekun?


Yet the North wonders why many Southerners now want nothing to do with them? This is a region with leaders who revel in doing evil and treating the lives of their people as worthless same way no one cares when exterminators fumigate their residence to kill Cockroaches etal.

Yet they never give Southern President (from OBJ to GEJ and now Tinubu) peace in office. Really tragic and Southerners really need to open their eyes and think because it is obvious political, cultural and religious leaders in the North know their region is gone.

Obvious too, with how they are not seeking solutions, they have now embraced the idea of taking the South down with them. This is why their house is burning and they are doing everything else aside searching for the extinguisher to put out the fire.

The police officers need his brain and not his body,

We must teach Peter Obi a bitter political lesson

Igirigimercenar:
. You mean taking the south west down with them because both the yorubas and hausas are kits and kin

Esthered:
No state of emergency yet?

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and ipob is Nigeria problem not bandits and terrorists.
