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.

  1. Honestly impressed by the consistency of voice across what I have read so far, and a quick visit to nightorchardvault continued that consistent feel, when a site reads like one careful person rather than a committee the experience is more rewarding for the reader who notices these subtle editorial details over time.

  2. Thanks for the breakdown, it gave me a clearer picture of something I had been confused about for a while now, and a stop at wheatcoveartisanoutlet closed the remaining gaps in my understanding nicely, no need to hunt around twenty other articles to put the pieces together which is a real time saver.

  3. Now placing this in the small category of sites whose updates I would actually want to know about, and a stop at aurorastonecollective confirmed that placement, the difference between sites I want to follow and sites I just consume from is real and this one has crossed into the active follow category from the casual consumption side.

  4. Manga lovers graphic stories may free manga read to find exciting plots. Available titles contains romance, meaning that manga enthusiasts can find something enjoyable. New chapters allow fans to discover what happens next

  5. One of the more honest takes on the topic I have seen lately, no spin and no oversell, and a stop at kettlegroveboutiquehouse kept that going, the kind of voice the open web could use a lot more of rather than the endless echo chamber of recycled opinions floating around every social platform these days.

  6. Genuinely good work, the kind that holds up over multiple readings without losing its appeal, and a stop at apricotharborvault kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to and probably mentioning to others who work in or care about this particular area of interest today and in coming weeks.

  7. Glad I gave this a chance instead of bouncing on the headline, and after zencoveoutpost I was certain I had made the right call, snap judgements based on titles miss a lot of good content and this is a reminder to slow down and check things out before scrolling past in a hurry.

  8. Liked that there was nothing performative about the writing, and a stop at woodmeadowoutlet continued that genuine quality, performative writing tries to be witnessed rather than read and the difference between performance and substance is huge for the careful reader and this site has clearly chosen substance every time clearly.

  9. Really appreciate the absence of stock photos that have nothing to do with the content, and a quick visit to mythmarket maintained the same restraint, visual filler is a tell that the writing cannot stand on its own and the lack of it here suggests the team has confidence in their content quality alone.

  10. A genuine compliment to the writer for keeping the post focused on what mattered, and a look at quartzorchardvault continued that disciplined focus, focus is a editorial choice that compounds across many small decisions and this site has clearly made those small decisions consistently across what I have read so far this week here.

  11. Strong recommendation, anyone interested in this topic owes themselves a visit, and a stop at violettrailartisanmarket extends that recommendation across more of the site, this is the kind of resource that makes me more optimistic about the state of the open web than I usually am these days actually for once which is genuinely refreshing.

  12. Really like the way the post resists reaching for cliches that would have made it feel generic, and a quick visit to foreststoneemporium kept that fresh feel going, original phrasing and unexpected metaphors are signs that the writer is actually thinking rather than just stitching together familiar phrases into the appearance of content.

  13. Found this through a friend who recommended it and now I see why, and a look at brighttrailartisanbazaar only strengthened that recommendation in my own mind, word of mouth still works for content that actually delivers and this site is clearly earning recommendations the old fashioned way through quality rather than marketing.

  14. Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at baytrailartisanmart continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.

  15. Clean writing, easy to read, and never tries too hard to impress, that combination is harder to find than people think, and after my time on canyonmeadowoutlet I am sure this site treats its readers well, no flashy tricks just useful content done right which is honestly all I want online.

  16. A clear case of writing that does not try to do too much in one post, and a look at wildorchardvault maintained the same scoped discipline, posts that try to cover too much end up covering nothing well and this site has clearly chosen scope discipline as a core editorial principle which shows up clearly in what I read.

  17. The clarity here is something I really appreciate, especially compared to sites that pile on jargon for no reason, and a look at packandpost was the same, simple direct sentences that actually deliver information instead of dancing around the point for paragraphs at a time which wastes reader patience.

  18. The whole experience of reading this was pleasant from start to finish, no pop ups and no annoying interruptions, and a look at quickharborvault continued that clean experience, technical choices about page design matter for the reader and this site clearly cares about the small details that add up to comfort across multiple visits.

  19. This actually answered the question I had been searching for, and after I checked crowntrailartisanoutlet I had a few more pieces I had not realised I needed, that is the sign of a site that knows what its readers want before they even know how to ask it which is impressive.

  20. Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at florastoneoutpost extended that brightness, content that improves a hard day is content that has earned a particular kind of place in my reading habits and this site is occupying that uplifting role for me today which I appreciate clearly.

  21. Now feeling the quiet pleasure of finding writing that takes itself seriously without being self serious, and a stop at meadowridgecollectivemart extended that subtle pleasure, the gap between earnest and pretentious is fine and this site has clearly chosen to land on the earnest side without slipping over into pretentious which is impressive.

  22. Worth pointing out that the post avoided the temptation to summarise everything at the end, and a look at auroracovevault continued that confident closing approach, content that trusts readers to retain the substance without being reminded of it at the end is content that respects the reader and this site practices that respect.

  23. A piece that did not require external context to follow, and a look at pagerankparlor maintained the same self contained quality, content that stands alone without forcing readers to chase prerequisites is more accessible and this site has clearly thought about how each piece can serve a fresh visitor rather than only existing members.

  24. Genuinely well crafted writing, the kind that makes the topic look easier than it actually is, and a look at pebblepineoutlet 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.

  25. Now appreciating that the post did not require external context to follow, and a look at cottontrailartisanbazaar maintained the same self contained quality, content that respects new visitors by being readable without prerequisites is content with broader accessibility and this site has clearly invested in keeping each piece reader friendly for fresh arrivals.

  26. Bookmark earned and folder updated to track this site separately, and a look at maplegroveemporium confirmed the folder upgrade was the right call, organising my reading list so that good sites do not get lost in a sea of casual bookmarks is something I do more carefully now and this site warranted its own spot.

  27. Really appreciate that the writer did not overstate the importance of the topic to make the post feel weightier, and a quick visit to nightroutine maintained the same modest framing, content that is honest about its own scope rather than inflating itself is the kind I trust and return to repeatedly over time.

  28. Better than most of the writing I have come across on this topic recently, simpler and more direct, and a look at woodcovevault continued in that same way, a real outlier in a crowded space full of repetitive content that says little while taking up a lot of reader time today which is unfortunate.

  29. Felt slightly impressed without being able to point to one specific reason, and a look at kettlegroveboutiquehouse continued that diffuse positive feeling, when content works at a level you cannot easily articulate the writer is doing something with craft rather than just delivering information and that is something I have learned to recognise.

  30. A piece that brought a sense of order to a topic I had been finding chaotic, and a look at dunecoveoutpost2 continued that organising effect, content that imposes useful structure on messy subjects is doing genuine intellectual work and this site is providing that organisational function across multiple posts I have read recently here.

  31. Took the time to read every paragraph rather than skimming for the punchline, and a quick visit to nichepatch earned the same careful attention from me, that is the highest signal I can give about content quality because my default mode is rapid scanning rather than deliberate reading on most pages.

  32. Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at brighttrailartisanbazaar confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.

  33. Vague feelings of recognition kept surfacing as I read because the writing names things I have been thinking, and a look at nightnarrative produced more of those recognition moments, content that gives shape to private intuitions is content that makes me feel less alone in my own thinking and this site has that effect.

    Mostly a reader, rarely post, but I figured I would share how I pick an online casino these days. After trying maybe a dozen sites I stopped going by ads alone.

    First thing is the licence: find the licence number and look it up, and if your country is on the allowed list. Then payments: crypto is a plus but not a must, and cashout times should be listed up front.

    The welcome offer is where most people get caught. Read the wagering and the max bet rule, and live tables often do not count at all. A good recent review that covers all of this is here [url=https://tudomuaban.com/chi-tiet-rao-vat/3049052/craybet—real-money-gaming-in-2026-a-practical-player-guide.html]play at Craybet[/url] so you know what you are signing up for.

    On mobile I mostly use the browser version, and if there is an app I make sure it comes from the official page. Support matters too: a real human reply beats a bot loop.

    Hope this helps someone. Set a budget and stick to it.

    Been reading this board for a while, so here is how I pick an online casino these days. After trying maybe a dozen sites I stopped going by ads alone.

    First thing is the licence: find the licence number and look it up, because some sites quietly block certain regions. After that I look at banking: crypto is a plus but not a must, and the withdrawal limits need to be written clearly.

    The welcome offer is where most people get caught. Read the wagering and the max bet rule, and some games count less towards it. A decent independent write-up with the current terms is here [url=https://cpguided0646ff0.canalblog.com/gamblezen-casino-real-money-gaming-in-2026-a-practical-player-guide.html]Gamblezen[/url] so you know what you are signing up for.

    On mobile I mostly use the browser version, and a good site loads fast and does not log you out every five minutes. Support matters too: a real human reply beats a bot loop.

    Anyway, that is my routine. Treat it as entertainment, not income.

    Mostly a reader, rarely post, thought I would drop how I pick an online casino these days. After getting burned once or twice I stopped trusting the big banners.

    Licence comes first for me: see which authority is listed in the footer, and whether they actually accept players from your country. After that I look at banking: I want at least one fast e-wallet option, and the withdrawal limits need to be written clearly.

    Never judge a site by the bonus alone. Wagering of 35x or 40x is normal, and live tables often do not count at all. A good recent review that covers all of this is worth a read here [url=https://forum.hcpforum.com/read-blog/28885]Trino Casino review[/url] so you know what you are signing up for.

    On mobile I mostly use the browser version, so I check how the lobby works on a small screen. Support matters too: a real human reply beats a bot loop.

    That is about it. Only play with money you can afford to lose.

    Been reading this board for a while, but I figured I would share how I pick an online casino these days. After trying maybe a dozen sites I stopped trusting the big banners.

    First thing is the licence: find the licence number and look it up, and whether they actually accept players from your country. Next come deposits and withdrawals: crypto is a plus but not a must, and there should be no weird fees on cashouts.

    Never judge a site by the bonus alone. Anything above 40x rollover is a red flag for me, and the bonus usually expires in a week or two. A good recent review that covers all of this is here [url=https://forum.hcpforum.com/read-blog/28884]Lottoland[/url] before you deposit anything.

    On mobile I mostly use the browser version, and a good site loads fast and does not log you out every five minutes. Support matters too: if they answer in a couple of minutes that is a good sign.

    That is about it. Only play with money you can afford to lose.

    Been reading this board for a while, thought I would drop my short checklist for choosing a casino site. After trying maybe a dozen sites I learned to read the small print first.

    First thing is the licence: find the licence number and look it up, and if your country is on the allowed list. Next come deposits and withdrawals: I want at least one fast e-wallet option, and cashout times should be listed up front.

    Never judge a site by the bonus alone. Anything above 40x rollover is a red flag for me, and some games count less towards it. A useful overview with bonus rules, app info and payment methods can be found here [url=https://tdmromania.ro/member.php?action=profile&uid=21948]Legionbet[/url] before you deposit anything.

    I play almost only on my phone, and if there is an app I make sure it comes from the official page. Support matters too: if they answer in a couple of minutes that is a good sign.

    That is about it. Treat it as entertainment, not income.

  39. Worth bookmarking and sharing with anyone interested in the topic, that is my honest take, and a stop at warehousewave reinforces that, the kind of generous resource that makes the open web feel worth defending against the constant pressure to retreat into walled gardens and curated feeds today everywhere I look across all my devices.

  40. Quietly the writers approach to the topic differs from the dominant takes I have been encountering, and a stop at oceanoutfitters extended that distinctive approach, content that maintains a different perspective without explicitly arguing against the dominant ones is content with confident editorial identity and this site has that confidence throughout pieces.

  41. Worth flagging this site to a few specific friends who would appreciate the editorial sensibility, and a look at kettlecrestmarket added more pages I will mention to them, recommending sites to specific people requires understanding both the site and the person and this site is making those personalised recommendations easy and natural for me.

  42. Now recognising that this site has earned a place in the small group of resources I treat as authoritative, and a stop at canyonstonegalleria confirmed that placement, the difference between resources I trust and resources I just consume is real and this site has clearly moved into the trusted category through consistent quality over time.

  43. A piece that left me thinking I had been undercaring about the topic, and a look at olivestonecollective reinforced that mild concern, content that raises the appropriate weight of a subject without being preachy about it is doing important work and this site is providing that gentle elevation of attention for me consistently.

  44. Solid stuff, the kind of post that I will probably refer back to later this month when the topic comes up again, and a look at walnutcovevault only confirmed I should bookmark the site as a whole rather than just this single page for future reference and use across coming weeks.

  45. Really appreciate that the writer did not overstate the importance of the topic to make the post feel weightier, and a quick visit to skybrookmarketfoundry maintained the same modest framing, content that is honest about its own scope rather than inflating itself is the kind I trust and return to repeatedly over time.

  46. Bookmark earned, share earned, return visit earned, all from one reading session, and a look at berrystoneoutpost did the same, the trifecta of bookmark and share and return is rare in a single visit and represents the highest level of engagement I tend to offer any piece of online content these days here.

  47. A piece that did not require external context to follow, and a look at silvercovevault maintained the same self contained quality, content that stands alone without forcing readers to chase prerequisites is more accessible and this site has clearly thought about how each piece can serve a fresh visitor rather than only existing members.

  48. Came in skeptical and left mostly convinced, that is the highest praise I can offer, and a look at echobrookvault pushed me further in the same direction, content that survives a critical first read is rare and worth recognising because most blog posts crumble under any real scrutiny these days when you actually pay attention closely.

  49. Came away with a slightly better mental model of the topic than I started with, and a stop at lemoncovecommerceatelier sharpened that further, content that improves the reader thinking apparatus rather than just dumping facts into it is the rare kind I genuinely value and seek out when I have time to read carefully.

  50. Glad I gave this fifteen minutes rather than the usual three minute skim, and a look at dunestonegalleria earned the same investment, time spent on quality content is rarely wasted but the reverse is also true and learning which sites deserve which kind of attention is part of being a careful online reader.
