Just days after the tragic death of the Emir of Gobir, Alhaji Isa, who was also the District Head of Gatawa, the region has been hit by another wave of violence. Bandits have unleashed terror on several villages within the Gobir Emirate of Sokoto State, abducting over 150 residents and making off with more than 1,000 cattle.
The audacious attack has left the community in shock, with families mourning the loss of their loved ones and grappling with the fear of further attacks. Local authorities are scrambling to respond, as the bandits continue to tighten their grip on the region.
This latest incident adds to the growing insecurity in Sokoto State, raising urgent questions about the effectiveness of current security measures. The people of Gobir Emirate are calling for immediate intervention to prevent further bloodshed and restore peace to their beleaguered communities.
