GOOD NEWS: Last night, around 1AM, bandits attacked Rafin Gora, a Fulani settlement in Tandama Ward, Dandume LGA, Katsina State. The raid left one resident injured and resulted in the theft of hundreds of cattle.

Community members, working alongside local vigilantes and Katsina Community Watch Committee (CWC) in Dandume, pursued the attackers and successfully recovered 100 stolen cattle.

The attack comes despite a peace agreement between LGA stakeholders and bandits ahead of Ramadan, showing ongoing insecurity in the area.

Bauchi has now joined the growing list of states hit by brutal attacks from armed groups. Across northern Nig, communities are turning into killing fields for civilians. Yet the response from authorities remains weak & detached, even as the violence spreads at an alarming pace.

By: Zagazola Makama

A 15-year-old boy was killed while security operatives repelled an attack by suspected members of the proscribed IPOB/ESN militia at Ogbakoba Market Arena in Anambra State.

Sources said the incident occurred on Feb. 21 at about 1:40 p.m., when a group of armed hoodlums emerged from a dense forest camp at Amiyi and opened sporadic fire at market-goers, apparently attempting to kidnap or rob residents.

A joint task force patrol team stationed at Amiyi responded swiftly, engaging the attackers in a fierce gun duel that forced them to retreat into the forest with bullet wounds. The injured boy was rushed to the village hospital but was confirmed dead on arrival. His body was deposited in the morgue for autopsy and preservation.

The sources added that later the same day at about 8:30 p.m., the armed group resurfaced near the community, snatching a shuttle bus with registration number HAL 987 XA and a GSM phone belonging to one Mr. Kinsley Iwunze of Okpotuno Odekpe, Ogbaru LGA.

Security operatives immediately dispatched teams to the scene, but the hoodlums had fled. Authorities said an aggressive manhunt was ongoing to apprehend the fleeing suspects.

BANDITS ATTACK YANDOMA IN KATSINA, ONE KILLED AS SECURITY FORCES RESCUE ABDUCTEES

Last night, bandits attacked Yandoma town in Ingawa LGA of Katsina State, killing one person and abducting several residents. Witnesses said the bandits invaded the community under the cover of darkness, shooting sporadically and causing widespread panic among villagers.

Security operatives responded swiftly to the distress calls, pursued the attackers into the surrounding areas, and successfully rescued all the abducted victims. Authorities have not yet disclosed further operational details, but residents confirmed that the captives were safely returned following the rapid intervention.

The attack comes weeks after stakeholders in Ingawa LGA reportedly sealed a peace deal with bandit groups in Kankia, raising fresh concerns about the sustainability of such agreements and the persistent security challenges facing rural communities in the state.

What concrete steps are authorities taking to ensure that peace agreements with armed groups lead to durable security and prevent further attacks on vulnerable communities?

Two suspected kidnappers killed, rifle recovered in Akwa Ibom operation

By: Zagazola Makama

Two suspected kidnappers were fatally wounded and a firearm recovered during a security operation along waterways in Akwa Ibom State.

Security sources said the operation was carried out at about 11:10 p.m. on Feb. 16 following intelligence on the activities of a militant group known as the “Blin Blin Marine Strike Force,” allegedly operating along the Uruan waterways and Itu waterfronts.

The sources said a tactical team conducting a clearance operation at Ikot Ika waterfront encountered the suspects in a gun duel. During the exchange, one officer sustained gunshot injuries and was rushed to hospital, where he is currently receiving treatment.

Two members of the group were neutralised during the encounter, while others reportedly escaped through the waterways with gunshot wounds.

Items recovered from the suspects included a G3 assault rifle and four rounds of live ammunition.

Preliminary findings indicated that the group was allegedly led by Ubong Effiong Archibong, also known as “Condiment,” who was on a wanted list over alleged involvement in several kidnapping and violent crime incidents within the state.

Sources added that operations were ongoing to track down fleeing members of the gang and dismantle the remaining network.
