Tension as bandits attack Sokoto community, shoot two, abduct over 10 women
At least two people have been shot, and more than 10 women were abducted when bandits attacked Tudun Mallam village in Wurno Local Government Area of Sokoto State on Sunday night.
The incident was reported on Monday by security analyst Bakatsine via X, who said the attackers stormed the community late at night.
“Last night, bandits raided Tudun Mallam village in Wurno LGA of Sokoto State, shooting two people who are now hospitalised in Udutu PHC, abducting more than 10 women and looting farm equipment, according to residents.
“Communities say attacks and kidnappings are continuing despite the claims of improved security. Where exactly is the improved security being promised?” Bakatsine wrote.
