Suspected armed bandits have allegedly threatened to launch attack on four Sokoto villages, neighbouring Zamfara State, DAILY NIGERIAN reports.
Villagers who spoke to our reporter on Saturday night said the bandits sent letters to villages of Ruwan Tsamiya and Kursa in Gandi district of Rabah Local Government Area of Sokoto State.
According to the local sources, the bandits also sent warning messages to villages of Kaiwar Dawa and Malela in the same district.
“The bandits particularly demanded huge amount of money from Alhaji Mani Shehu, a rich farmer in Ruwan Tsamiya,” a resident of the village, Mallam Zaidi, told DAILY NIGERIAN.
“The villagers are now planning to raise money for the bandits to avoid attack. We can’t call the bandits’ bluff because we saw what happened to other villages.”
A lecturer at Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto, Mansur Buhari, also told DAILY NIGERIAN that he received calls on Saturday night from one of the villagers, lamenting about the bandits’ demands.
But spokesperson for Sokoto Police Command, Cordelia Nwawe, refuted the villagers claim, saying the police had not received any report on the matter.
Ms Nwawe noted that the area is “well secure with massive deployment of policemen.”
“As I speak to you, there are two mobile police units in the Gandi general area, hundreds of policemen are patrolling the area.
“Ask them to report the matter to police not journalists so that we take action. If they feel threatened, they should not hesitate to go to the IDP camp and settle for some time,” she added.

DSS will not act now o!
sha it has nothing to do with a senator, so am not expecting our "masked DSS" to react.

How peaceful sokoto suddenly became an insecure state is what I cannot understand.
Immediately the defection of aminu tanbuwal to PDP happened, the state started getting attacked by armed militia.
I keep wondering what these guys in the north is doing with power if they cannot for once enjoy some level of peace. Southerners do not have power but there is peace and people go about doing there business without fear of harm. What then is the essence of power if you cannot secure yourself.
When Biafra is achieved, I swear Igbo land will be like heaven on earth.

That's why am agitating for a very intelligent security team like FBI in Nigeria. Merge DSS, SARS, NSCDC, etc to form a very intelligent and incorrupt security team to curb crimes in Nigeria.

This nation is in shambles
You can imagine police advising people to go IDP camps

How come different types of criminals in the north have different areas of operation? Bokos=north east; fulani herdsmen=middlebelt; and bandits=north west.

The bizarre thing is that the so called security is able to tell one from the other...even before apprehending the culprits! Abi dem dey use CSI techniques?

Seems you don't know that police stations in Nigeria close by 6pm for security reason.

That's just the beginning

By the time Buhari is done with you guys in 2019

You will learn a lot from your mistake stupidity

And that's if you possess a mental faculty that can process the reasoning for you

Python is dancing in the peaceful southeast and people are been killed in the north and not even lizard dance.
