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 adding the writer to a small mental list of voices I want to follow, and a look at clicktowinonline reinforced that follow intention, the few writers whose work I actively track are writers who have demonstrated sustained quality and this writer has clearly demonstrated that sustained quality across the pieces I have sampled here today.
Strong recommendation, anyone interested in this topic owes themselves a visit, and a stop at sunharborcollective 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.
Great work on keeping things readable, the post never drags or repeats itself which I really appreciate, and a stop at valuebuyingpoint added a bit more context that fit naturally with what was already said here, no need to read everything twice to get the point being made today.
Nice and clean, that is the best way to describe the writing here, no clutter and no wasted words, and a quick visit to bondharbor kept that going, I appreciate when a site treats its readers like people who can think for themselves without needing constant hand holding through every paragraph.
Now feeling mildly impressed in a way I do not quite remember feeling about a blog in a while, and a stop at truepathbond extended that mild impression, content that produces specific positive emotional responses rather than just neutral information transfer is content with extra dimensions and this site has those extra dimensions clearly.
Felt mildly happier after reading, which sounds silly but is true, and a look at clicktolearnmore extended that small mood lift, content that improves rather than degrades my mental state is content I want more of and the cumulative effect of reading sites that lift versus sites that drag is real over time.
Found a couple of useful angles in here I had not considered before reading carefully, and a quick stop at wildshoreatelier added more, this is one of those sites where the value compounds the more you read rather than peaking at one viral post and then offering nothing else of substance afterwards which is common.
Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at brasslaneboutique kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.
Really like that the writer trusts the reader to follow simple logic without restating every previous point, and a stop at intentionalprogress kept that respect going, treating an audience as capable adults rather than as people who need constant hand holding makes a noticeable difference in the reading experience for me.
Good quality through and through, no rough edges and no signs of being rushed, and a quick look at harvestlumen kept the same polish going, the kind of site that respects its own brand by maintaining consistency across pages which is something I always appreciate as a reader looking for trustworthy information online today.
Top notch writing, every paragraph carries weight and nothing feels like filler, and a stop at softwildflower reflected that same care, a rare thing on the open web these days where most pages exist for clicks rather than actual reader value or anything close to that which is honestly a real shame.
Reading this felt productive in a way most internet reading does not, and a look at goldveinmarket continued that productive feeling, sometimes the open web feels like a waste of time but sites like this remind me why I still bother to look around rather than retreating to old reliable sources for everything I need.
Now thinking I want more sites built on this kind of editorial foundation, and a stop at coalitionbond extended that wish into a broader hope, sites built on substance and care rather than on metrics and growth are the kind of sites I want to see more of and this one is a small example worth supporting.
Now appreciating that the post left me with enough to say in a follow up conversation, and a look at bondsteady added more material for those follow ups, content that prepares me for related conversations rather than just informing me alone is content with social utility and this site provides that social armament reliably for me.
Now placing this in the same category as a few other sites I have come to trust, and a look at bondtrustix continued the placement decision, the small category of fully trusted sites is one I extend rarely and only after multiple positive reading sessions and this site has earned the category placement methodically over time.
Reading more of the archives is now on my plan for the weekend, and a stop at growwithrightchoices confirmed the archive worth the time, the rare archive worth a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the rare archive of serious work and this site has clearly produced enough of that work to warrant the deeper exploration.
Beyond the topic at hand this site reads as a small ongoing project of taking writing seriously, and a look at smartshoppingdepot reinforced that project quality, sites that treat publishing as an ongoing serious practice rather than as content production for traffic are sites worth supporting and this one has clearly chosen the serious approach.
Appreciated how the post felt complete without overstaying its welcome, and a stop at northgrainoutlet confirmed that economical approach runs across the site, knowing when to stop is a skill many writers never develop but here the discipline is obvious and welcome from the perspective of a busy reader trying to learn things efficiently.
Thanks for taking the time to write this, it is clear that some thought went into how each point would land, and after I went through bondmerit I had a better grip on the topic, real value without the usual marketing noise people have to put up with online when searching for answers.
Now setting up a small reminder to revisit the site on a slow day, and a stop at quickbuyingmarket confirmed the reminder was a good idea, planning return visits is a small organisational act that signals trust in ongoing quality and this site has earned that planned return through consistent performance across the pieces I have read so far.
Took a chance on the headline and was rewarded, and a stop at goldthreadoutlet kept the rewards coming as I clicked through, the kind of place where every link leads somewhere worth the click is a small luxury on the modern web where so many sites are mostly empty calories disguised as content.
Glad the writer did not feel the need to argue with imaginary critics in the post itself, and a stop at windriveremporium kept the same focused approach going, defensive writing wastes the reader time and confidence on positions that did not need defending and this post has clearly avoided that common failure.
Reading this on the train into work was a better use of the commute than my usual choices, and a stop at ikbarmeryansus extended that commute reading well, content that improves transit time rather than just filling it is content with practical benefit and this site has earned its place in my morning commute reading rotation.
Got pulled in by the headline and stayed because the content actually delivered on the promise, and a stop at sunfieldemporium kept that trust intact, when a site lives up to its own framing it earns the right to keep showing up in my browser tabs going forward indefinitely from here on out really.
I learned more from this short post than from longer articles I read earlier today, and a stop at nextgenshoppinghub added even more useful detail without going off topic, this site clearly knows how to keep things focused without sacrificing depth which is a hard balance to strike for any writer.
Looking forward to seeing what gets published next month, and a look at wildbranchoutlet extended that anticipation across the broader site, finding myself looking forward to a sites future content rather than just consuming its existing content is a stronger commitment level than I usually reach with new finds and this site triggered that.
Looking through other posts here the consistency is what makes the site valuable rather than any single piece, and a stop at emberfieldmarket extended that consistency observation, sites whose value lies in the ongoing pattern rather than in standout posts are sites I trust more deeply and this one has clearly built that kind of trust.
Cuts through the usual marketing fluff that dominates this topic online, and a stop at totalshoppingcenter kept the same clean approach going, this is the kind of writing that respects the reader’s time rather than wasting it on repetitive setups before finally getting to the point at hand which is what most sites do.
Beyond the immediate post itself the editorial sensibility behind the site is what struck me, and a stop at bondaxis continued displaying that sensibility, content that reveals editorial choices through accumulated reading is content with structural quality and this site has clearly developed an underlying approach worth identifying through multiple sessions of reading.
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 growthactivation 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.
My time on this site has now extended past what I had budgeted, and a stop at urbanbuyingstore keeps extending it further, content that overstays its budget in my schedule is content that has earned the extra time and this site has been earning extra time across multiple visits to the point where my schedule needs adjustment.
Liked the way the post got out of its own way, and a stop at softoakatelier extended that invisible craft, the best writing you barely notice while reading because it is doing its work without drawing attention to itself and this site has clearly mastered that disappearing act across the pieces I have read.
Probably one of the more reliable sources I have found for this kind of careful coverage, and a look at buildlongtermvision reinforced the reliability, the small group of sources I would describe as reliable for a given topic is curated carefully and this site has earned a place in that small group through consistent performance.
Solid little post, the kind that does not need to be flashy because the substance is doing the work, and a look at trustnex kept that quiet confidence going across the site, this is what writing looks like when the writer trusts the content to land on its own without theatrics or unnecessary attention seeking behaviour.
Will be back, that is the simplest way to say it, and a quick visit to stonepetalshop reinforced the decision, this site has earned a spot in my regular rotation alongside a few other reliable places I check when I want something genuinely informative without all the usual modern web noise getting in the way.
Genuine pleasure to read, and that is not something I say often after a casual click through, and a quick visit to findsmarteroptions kept the same feeling going across the rest of the site, finding writing that actually feels good to spend time with rather than just functional is increasingly rare on the open web.
Easily one of the better explanations I have read on the topic, and a stop at moonveilgoods pushed it even higher in my mental ranking of useful resources, the kind of site that beats the average not by trying harder but by simply caring more about what it puts out daily which always shows.
Honest take is that I will probably forget most of what I read online today but this post is one I will remember, and a stop at timberechoemporium kept that same memorable quality going, certain writing leaves a residue in the mind in a way most content simply does not manage.
Reading this confirmed that the topic deserves more careful attention than it usually gets, and a stop at buildmomentumonline extended that elevated framing, content that raises the appropriate weight of a subject without being preachy about it is serving a quiet but important editorial function for the broader cultural conversation about it.
Now considering whether the post would translate well into a different form, and a look at brightridgeoutlet suggested similar versatility, content that could move into other media without losing its substance is content that has been built around ideas rather than around format and this site reads as idea first throughout posts.
After several visits I am now confident this site is one to follow seriously, and a stop at buyinghubonline reinforced that confidence, the gradual building of trust through repeated quality exposures is the only sustainable way to develop reader loyalty and this site is building that loyalty in me through patient consistent work consistently.
Really grateful for content like this, it does not waste my time and it does not insult my intelligence either, and a quick look at cinderlaneemporium was the same, balanced respectful writing that makes a person feel welcome rather than rushed through pages of forced engagement just to keep clicking around.
Came across this looking for something else entirely and ended up reading it through twice, and a look at reliableonlinebuys pulled me deeper into the site than I planned, the writing has a way of holding attention without resorting to manipulative cliffhangers or vague promises that never get delivered later down the page.
Excellent post, balanced and well organised without showing off, and a stop at createforwardprogress continued in that same vein, this site has clearly figured out the formula for content that works for readers rather than for search engine ranking signals which is harder than it sounds today and worth real recognition from anyone.
Worth a quiet moment of recognition for the consistency I have noticed across multiple posts, and a stop at ironleafmarket continued that consistent quality, sites that maintain quality across many pieces rather than peaking on one viral post are sites with real editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that discipline carefully.
Reading this in a quiet hour and finding it suited the quiet, and a stop at clicktofindsolutions extended the quiet reading mood, content that matches its own optimal reading conditions rather than fighting them is content that has been thoughtfully calibrated and this site reads as having a particular reading mood in mind throughout.
The clarity here is something I really appreciate, especially compared to sites that pile on jargon for no reason, and a look at bondkeystone 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.
Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at ashenfernshop 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 triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at driftstonecollective reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.
Now appreciating the way the post avoided the temptation to be longer than necessary, and a look at reliableonlinebuys continued that lean approach, content with the discipline to stop when finished rather than padding for length is content that respects both itself and its readers and this site has that disciplined editorial culture clearly throughout.
