At least two people were shot and more than 10 women abducted when bandits attacked Tudun Mallam village in Wurno Local Government Area of Sokoto State on Sunday night.

The incident was disclosed in a post shared on X on Monday by security analyst Bakatsine.

According to Bakatsine, 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.

Authorities are yet to issue an official statement on the incident.
