Zamfara Crisis: Bandits Kidnap Couple and Children in Daring Raid
In a recent incident in Shinkafi Local Government Area of Zamfara State, bandits abducted Alhaji Adam Barau El-Duniya, his wife, their children, and two others.
This event is part of a broader pattern of kidnappings in Zamfara State. In Gana village, over 40 individuals, primarily women and children, were abducted by bandits.
These incidents highlight the ongoing security challenges in Zamfara State, where banditry and kidnappings have become prevalent. The state has experienced several attacks, including the abduction of 279 schoolgirls in Jangebe in 2021 and the killing of over 200 people by bandits in early 2022.
