Insecurity: Bandits Kill 20 In Sokoto

By Muhammad Goronyo, Sokoto

About 20 corpses killed by bandits at Unguwar Lalle village, Goronyo local government of Sokoto state have been picked up by security operatives shortly after the bandits left the scene of attack.

The dead bodies were seen at different locations. This was because whoever tried to run was killed following the location where he tried to escape in order to save his life most which were picked inside the bush.

According to an eye witness, “I cannot ascertain their number, but they are frightening, most of them masked their faces carrying heavy modern guns while others carry deadly weapons.

As at now, another reliable source disclosed that relatives of those not seen spread inside the bush looking for those that did not come back hours after the bandits attack.

At the time our correspondent was compiling this report, he tried by all means to contact the Goronyo council Chairman but the network was not in his support.
