Nagwari explained that two persons were killed in Birnin- Gwari, one in Kuriga and two others in Udawa while two women and five others sustained bullet wounds at about 4.30 p.m. He said: “The bandits also burnt a tanker conveying 33,000 liters of fuel to Brinin- Gwari at the same Manini killing field.”

According to him, attacks and killings in the area happen virtually on a daily basis and the situation has wors- Bandits kill 5, injure 7 in fresh Kaduna attacks ened movement of vehicles on the Birnin-Gwari-Kaduna highway.

Nagwari noted that the precarious security situation on Birnin-Gwari-Kaduna highway and the displacement of communities by the terrorists in the entire emirate had escalated to a level where movement of persons and goods were at the lowest ebb.

He urged President Muhammadu Buhari to urgently declare full-scale military bombardments of all bandits’ enclaves in Birnin Gwari forests and adjoining forests of Niger, Katsina and Zamfara states.

He also called for the establishment of a special JAMB/ CBT centre in Birnin-Gwari to give students there access to quality education since movement to Kaduna was now almost impossible due to the deteriorating security situation in the area.
