At the Sabon Layi community in the Birnin Gwari local government area of Kaduna State, bandits killed nine locals, including four vigilantes.
Nine people were slain by intermittent shooting by the bandits who are claimed to have assaulted the region in huge numbers before kidnapping over 20 others and rustling several livestock.
As previously mentioned, troops of operation Forest Sanity under the 1 Division Nigerian Army ambushed and neutralized a notorious bandit leader, Isiya Danwasa, and his gang after receiving a tip from human intelligence sources.
