A source told our correspondent that several other people were injured in the fresh attack which took place around 5:00am on Wednesday.

“Yes, there was an attack on Tudu village in Agwala Dutse at about 5:00am today(Wednesday) and several people were killed and several others too sustained injuries,” he said.

Although the Kaduna Police have not confirmed the latest attack, the Kajuru Local Government Chairman, Mr. Cafra Caino, said nine people lost their lives in the attack.

He said the timely intervention of security operatives prevented more casualties in the attack.

He said, “We have once again been set back in our confidence building effort and peace engagements after Tudu village in Agwala Dutse general area was attacked this morning.
