Several persons have been
killed in two communities of Shinkafi and Anka Local Government Areas of
Zamfara State.
The incident came less
than 24 hours after Governor
Abdul Aziz Yari swore to deal with bandits in the state.
The
Governor had ordered security agencies to deal ruthlessly with bandits before
the latest attack.
The
bandits, who move in high number on motorcycles, were said to have attacked the
community and Danjibga in the local government areas by residents, Nation
reports.
Army
spokesman of Operation Sharar Daji confirmed the two incidents.
He
said the casualties and extent of damage in the attacks will be released later,
stating the Commander- in- Charge of the operations has arrived the area to
provide security and get on-the-spot assessment.
