Bandits kill scores in Sokoto over refusal to pay levies
Over fifty persons were reportedly killed in two local governments areas of Sokoto State after gruesome attacks by bandits on Saturday evening.
The affected local governments area includes Gwadabawa and Tangaza local government areas of the state.
Sokoto Police Command PPRO, ASP Ahmad Rufa’i, who later confirmed the attacks on Sunday, assured that the command is on top of the situation and promised to give update on the attacks.
Hours after the attack on three communities in Tangaza local government area of Sokoto state, corpses of 37 persons were yet to be buried.
The communities attacked on Saturday evening are Raka, Raka Dutse, and Filin Gawa in Tangaza local government area.
The immediate past local government chairman of Tangazaa, Bshar Kalenjeni also confirmed the attacks saying 18 persons were killed at Raka, 17 at Filin Gawa and two at Raka Dutse.
In his narration, Kalenjeni said, “the bandits sometimes impose levies on the communities to be paid within a stipulated time and also want to be dictating to the residents on what to do.
“The offence of the villagers was their refusal to pay the levies imposed on their communities and succumb to the bandits threat.
“Angered by the villagers bold face, the bandits struck Saturday evening, killing 37 persons while several others with various degrees of gunshot injuries are currently receiving treatment at General Hospital, Gwadabawa.
“We wanted to bury those killed in the night but the bandits came back and dispersed us. As at this morning, the deceased are still there, yet to be buried.
“As this moment I am talking to you, we are waiting for security operatives to lead us to the villages in order to bury the dead ones and comb the surrounding areas in search of those missing.”
Speaking with our correspondent, a source in Gwadabawa local government, said, “some of the bandits were already in the town unknown to residents of the affected communities before others arrived in the evening to strike.
“The operation started after evening prayer where they attacked the two most populous villages of Sakamaru and Bilingawa, simultaneously.
“In Bilingawa, not less than 18 people were killed with Sakamaru being the worst, where scores of people were slaughtered and others killed in gunshot.
“After killing them, they set their corpses and that of their animals on fire by ensuring that most of them were burnt beyond recognition” he said.






Now considering writing a longer note about the post somewhere, and a look at ravensummitcollective added more material for that note, content that prompts me to write rather than just consume is content with generative energy and this site is producing that generative effect for me at a higher rate than most sources.
Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at fernbrookvendorfoundry added even more depth, you can feel the experience behind every line which is something only writers who have been at this for a while can pull off with this level of grace.
Found something quietly useful here that I expect to return to, and a stop at flintstonegalleria added more of the same, content with quiet utility ages well in a way that flashy hot takes do not and I have learned to weight quiet utility much higher when deciding what to bookmark for later use.
Now appreciating the small but real way this post improved my afternoon, and a stop at skymeadowtradehouse extended that small improvement effect, content that produces measurable positive impact on the texture of a reading day is content with real value and this site is producing those small positive impacts at a sustainable rate apparently.
Felt the writer respected the topic without being precious about it, and a look at woodtrailartisanhouse continued that respectful but unfussy treatment, finding the right register for serious topics is hard and this site has clearly figured out how to take the topic seriously while still being readable for casual visitors regularly.
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at rosecovevault showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
Took some notes for a project I am working on, and a stop at rainharboroutpost added more raw material to those notes, content that contributes to my own creative work rather than just being interesting in the moment is the kind I value most and the kind I will keep coming back to repeatedly.
Bookmark added with a small note about why, and a look at pearldockartisanhouse prompted another bookmark with another note, the bookmarks I annotate are the ones I expect to return to deliberately rather than stumble into and this site is generating annotated bookmarks at a higher rate than my usual content sources by some margin.
I have been using Revery Play Casino for roughly four months, so I have a fair idea of how it runs. Came across it while looking for a new UK casino, mainly because the bonus terms elsewhere were ridiculous. The game selection here is solid without being overwhelming, enough variety to keep things fresh.
Software comes from Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Nolimit City and Hacksaw Gaming. The usual suspects sit at the top, but I gravitate toward the high volatility section. The live tables run on Evolution, so Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time, blackjack and baccarat. Tables are staffed day and night, although peak hours can be crowded.
The introductory package at Revery Play is a 100 percent match up to 200 pounds with free spins. Wagering is 35x, fairly standard for this market. The latest promotions are listed at [url=https://harveyplanningconsultancy.co.uk]revery play[/url] before you commit funds. There are weekly reload offers.
The floor is ten pounds. Cards and PayPal all work without issues. Withdrawals to PayPal landed within a day, bank transfers ran a couple of days. Document check was straightforward — passed on the first attempt.
On the phone I play through the browser and it runs well. There is no native app to install, which honestly suits me. Customer service is available around the clock and wait times are short. Regulation is Curacao based, so not UKGC, which is worth knowing. Payouts have always come through for me.
Anyone curious about this topic would do well to start here, the foundation laid is solid, and a stop at coastcoveartisanmarket would round out their understanding nicely, this is the kind of resource I would point a friend toward without hesitation if they asked me where to begin learning about anything in this area.
Reading this gave me material for a conversation I needed to have anyway, and a stop at crystalcovevault added even more talking points, content that connects to upcoming social or professional needs rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind that earns priority placement in my attention these days routinely.
Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at amberharborstudio showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.
Glad to have another data point on a question I am still thinking through, and a look at securebuyingstore added two more, content that acknowledges its place in a wider conversation rather than pretending to settle the question alone is intellectually honest in a way that I wish was more common across the open web.
During a quiet evening reading session this provided just the right depth without being heavy, and a stop at elmwillowemporium maintained the same evening appropriate weight, content with depth that does not exhaust the reader is content with editorial calibration and this site has clearly figured out how to be substantial without being demanding all the time.
Big thanks to whoever wrote this, you saved me a lot of time hunting for the same info on other sites, and a stop at uplandcoveoutlet only added more useful detail without going off topic, that kind of focus is honestly hard to come across these days when most posts wander everywhere.
Reading this in three sittings because the day was fragmented, and the piece survived the fragmentation, and a stop at rainharbortrading held up under similar reading conditions, content engineered for continuous attention is fragile in modern conditions and this site reads as durable across the realistic ways people consume content today.
If I had to defend the time I spend reading independent blogs this site would feature in the defence, and a look at valevendor reinforced that defensive utility, the ongoing case for non algorithmic reading is one I make to myself periodically and sites like this one provide the actual evidence that supports the case clearly.
Picked up something useful for a side project, and a look at timbercovegoodsstore added another piece I will incorporate, content that connects to specific projects I am working on is content with practical utility and the practical utility of this site is showing up across multiple posts I have read in the last hour or so.
Reading this confirmed that my time researching the topic in other places had not been wasted, and a stop at alpinegrovegoodsstore extended the confirmation, when independent sources agree that is a useful signal and this site is one of the more reliable sources I have found for cross checking what I read elsewhere on similar subjects.
Closed several other tabs to focus on this one as I read, and a stop at maplestoneemporium held my undivided attention the same way, content that earns full focus in an attention environment full of competing pulls is content doing something genuinely well and the team behind it deserves recognition for that achievement consistently.
Reading this slowly to absorb the structure, and the structure is doing real work alongside the words, and a look at mintorchardvault maintained the same architectural quality, when sentence shapes and paragraph rhythms reinforce the meaning rather than just transporting words you know you are reading skilled work today.
However selective I am about new bookmarks this one made it past my filter, and a look at crowncovevault confirmed the bookmark was worth the slot, the precious slots in my permanent bookmark folder are difficult to earn and this site earned one without making me think twice about whether the slot was justified by the quality.
Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at caramelbrookvendorfoundry only encouraged more exploration, the kind of place where one click leads to another not through manipulative design but through genuinely interesting content is rare and worth highlighting when found like this somewhere on the open internet.
Reading this in my last reading slot of the day was a good way to end, and a stop at woodharborgoodsstore provided a satisfying close to the reading session, content that ends a day well rather than agitating it before sleep is the kind I value increasingly and this site fits that role for me consistently now.
Bookmark folder created specifically for this site, and a look at gladeharbortrading confirmed the dedicated folder was the right call, dedicated folders for individual sites are a level of organisation I rarely deploy and this site has earned that level of dedicated tracking based on the consistency I have seen so far across sessions.
Useful read, especially because the writer did not assume too much background from the reader, and a quick look at brightharborcollectivemart continued in the same way, a thoughtful site that meets people where they are which is something the modern web could use a lot more of for both casual and serious readers.
Took the time to read the comments on this post too and they were also worth reading, and a stop at mossharboroutpost suggested the community quality matches the content quality, when the conversation around a piece is as good as the piece itself you know you have found a real corner of the internet.
Liked how the post handled an objection I was forming as I read, and a stop at stoneharborcollectivemart similarly anticipated where my thinking was going next, the rare writer who can predict reader concerns and address them in advance is doing something most online content fails to do despite that being basic editorial work.
Picked up two new ideas that I expect will come up in conversations this week, and a look at canyonharborgoodsstore added another, content that arms me with talking points rather than just filling time is the kind that provides ongoing value beyond the moment of reading and this site is generating that kind of ongoing value.
Looking at the surface design and the substance together this site has both right, and a look at sagedockartisanbazaar reinforced that integrated quality, sites where presentation and content reinforce each other rather than fighting are sites with full editorial coherence and this one has clearly invested in both layers in a balanced way.
Even across multiple posts the writers voice has remained consistent in a way I appreciate, and a stop at apricotharbortrading continued that voice, sites that maintain editorial consistency across many pieces have something most sites lack and this one has clearly worked out how to keep its voice steady across what reads as a growing archive.
A satisfying piece in the way that good meals are satisfying rather than just filling, and a look at oceanoutfitters extended that satisfaction, the metaphor between content and meals is one I find useful and this site reads as a satisfying meal rather than the empty calories that most content provides for casual readers.
Worth saying that the quiet confidence of the writing is what landed first, and a look at ivorycrate continued that quiet quality, confident writing without the loud display of confidence is a rare combination and this site has clearly developed both the knowledge and the editorial restraint to land that combination consistently.
Spent a few minutes here and came away with a clearer picture of the topic, the writing keeps things simple without dumbing them down, and after a stop at granitestoneexchange the rest of the points lined up neatly which is something I appreciate when I am short on time and need answers fast.
However measured this site clears the bar I set for sites I take seriously, and a stop at birchharboroutpost continued clearing that bar, the metrics I use for site quality are admittedly informal but they are consistent and this site has cleared them on multiple measurements across multiple visits which is meaningful for my evaluation.
Now thinking about whether the writer might publish a longer form work I would buy, and a look at plumridgegoodsstore suggested the same depth would translate, content that makes me want to pay for related work in other formats is content that has earned commercial trust as well as attention trust and this site has both clearly.
Comfortable read, finished it without realising how much time had passed, and a look at quickstonegalleria pulled me into more pages the same way, the absence of friction in good content lets time disappear and that is one of the highest compliments I can pay any piece of writing I find online during a regular search session.
Came in skeptical of the angle and left mostly persuaded, and a stop at flintridgecollectivemart pushed me a bit further in the same direction, content that can move a critical reader by argument rather than rhetoric is rare and worth pointing out because it indicates real substance underneath the surface presentation here.
Genuine reaction is that I will probably think about this on and off for a few days, and a look at auroracoveoutpost added fuel to that, the best content lingers in your head after you close the tab rather than evaporating immediately and this site clearly knows how to write that kind of memorable content.
Easy to recommend, the content speaks for itself without needing additional praise from me, and a stop at ferncovecommercehub only adds more reasons to send people this way, the kind of generous resource that benefits its readers without demanding anything in return is increasingly rare and worth recognising clearly today across the broader open internet.
Honestly the simplicity of the explanation made the topic click for me in a way other writeups had not, and a look at acornstonegalleria continued that clarity into related areas, when a writer gets the level of explanation right the reader does the heavy lifting themselves and the post just enables it.
A particular kind of restraint shows up in the writing, and a look at auroraharbortradehouse maintained the same restraint across pages, knowing what not to say is just as important as knowing what to say and this site has clearly developed strong instincts on both sides of that editorial line throughout pieces I have read.
Now adding this site to a small mental group of recommendations I keep ready for specific kinds of inquiries, and a stop at wavemeadowtradehouse extended the recommendation readiness, content that I can confidently point friends and colleagues toward in specific contexts is content with real social utility and this site has that utility clearly.
Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at junipercovegalleria kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.
Decided not to skim despite my usual habit and was rewarded for the discipline, and a stop at calmmeadowvendorworks earned the same patient approach, training myself to recognise sites that warrant slower reading is part of being a careful online reader and this site is the kind that helps me practice that skill regularly.
Now feeling the post has earned a proper recommendation rather than a casual mention, and a stop at jasperjunction reinforced the recommendation strength, the difference between mentioning and recommending is a small editorial distinction I observe in my own conversations and this site has earned the upgraded recommendation level from me confidently today.
Glad to have another reliable bookmark for this topic, and a look at trailstoneemporium suggested several more pages I will be marking too, building a personal library of trustworthy resources is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is earning a place on my permanent shortlist for the topic.
Worth flagging this post as worth a careful read rather than a casual skim, and a stop at skyharboroutpost earned the same careful approach, the few sites that warrant slower reading are sites I now treat differently from the daily content stream and this one has clearly moved into that elevated treatment category.
A piece that built up gradually rather than front loading its main points, and a look at dawnharbormarketplace maintained the same gradual structure, content that trusts the reader to reach conclusions through accumulating reasoning is more persuasive than content that announces conclusions and then defends them and this site uses the persuasive approach.
Just want to flag that this was useful and not bury the appreciation in caveats, and a look at elmharborgalleria earned the same direct praise, recognising good work without hedging it with criticism is something I try to practice because over qualified compliments tend to read as backhanded and miss the point sometimes.
