A group of armed bandits, led by a notorious kingpin known as “Bakin Malam,” attacked Makera Village in Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State, abducting an unspecified number of residents and looting valuables, including eight motorcycles and food supplies.
Intelligence sources told Zagazola Makama that the attack, which occurred in the early hours of March 26, was reportedly a reprisal following the recent arrest and elimination of another bandit leader, Hassan Dantawaye, also known as “Na’bamamu,” by troops of Operation Fansan Yamma (OPFY).
The bandit fled, avoiding any confrontation with the troops who were deployed to the area
