AT least six people were reportedly killed while several others were abducted on Sunday evening after bandits raided Unguwar Samanja village in Faskari Local Government Area.
Faskari has suffered many attacks from bandits.
It was gathered that the bandits arrived at the village at 5:49 p.m. when residents were preparing for the dawn prayer.
A civil society organisation in Daudawa had cried out that despite the security measures taken by the state government, Faskari local government area has remained under attack.
Meanwhile, a joint operation by security agencies in the Jibia and Danmusa LGAs on Sunday led to the recovery of 102 domestic animals from bandits after a gun duel between the security team and some bandits.
The security operatives comprising the police, Nigerian Army and vigilante group were said to have stormed bandit camps Kadoji and Megezoji villages in the two councils and dislodged the gunmen, as well as recovered the rustled animals.
The spokesman for the State Police Command, SP Gambo Isah, confirmed the development yesterday.
He explained that the operation was based on credible information on the activities of bandits in the two communities.
