Bandits have killed 16 people in separate attacks on remote villages in northern Nigeria’s Katsina state, an area wracked by cattle-rustling and kidnappings, officials said Tuesday.
“The bandits killed 11 people in Dantakuri. One person was killed and another injured in nearby Barza,” Abbas said.Residents of Barza identified the victim as the chief imam of the village. “The bandits carted away from some livestock and the villagers pursued them into the forest to reclaim their animals which led to the death of four people from the village,” he said.Locals said gunmen invaded Zakka village in Safana district early Monday, kidnapping six people and taking away livestock.
