The community released the names following the claim by the police that only nine people were abducted.A resident of Tsafe town, Haruna Bashar, said those abducted included people from Wanzamai and Kucherri in Zamfara and some communities around Yankara in Katsina State.
“Yes, the list that you saw is genuine and it’s from our village. Any security or government official that said we’re lying should come to our town and we’ll show him evidence,” he said. The police command through its spokesperson, Mohammed Shehu, however insisted only nine residents were abducted. “Information received by the Command from Village Head of Wanzamai revealed that, about Nine women and children left their homes to the bush to fetch for firewood. As they moved deep into the forest, they were accosted and abducted to unknown destination by Armed Bandits,” he said.He said the police commissioner in the state, Kolo Yusuf, has reassured the family of those abducted that the command “would rescue them in good condition”.
Residents number is more authentic, police own is an assumption because those people are there and they know themselves more than police officers who came to the scene after the whole incidence.

It's no issue for them that the last 3 months had been the worst experience since the word Nigeria was used. Dauda has a lot of work to do in Zamfara. I hope Aliyu Gusau will assist with his wealth of experience in the security circle.
