Two policemen and an official of
the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) have been shot dead in
Ciki Da Falo, a village in Birnin Gwari local government area of Kaduna State.
Reports say 15 people, including
two brides, were abducted during the attack, which occurred on Thursday.
Austin Iwar, Kaduna State Police
Commissioner, who confirmed the incident to TheCable, said he was yet to get
the details of the attack.
Just last week, a village head
and five others were killed after suspected bandits attacked Sarari village near
Kuriga town in Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
The development prompted, Zubairu
Gwari, emir of Birnin Gwari, to ask his subjects to defend themselves against
those invading their communities.
“We can’t be fools to wait for
somebody that will not come. Nobody can stop me from telling my people to
protect themselves. And that is what we are doing now because the policemen
that are in Birnin Gwari cannot protect.
“The soldiers that are being
brought come and sometimes make matters worse. I am also appealing to the
president to come and see things for himself, because we are also Nigerians,”
he had said.
