A letter purportedly written by bandits to Kuraye village in Charanchi local government area in the state, warning residents to get ready for an attack has struck further fear in the hearts of Katsina people.
As President Muhammadu Buhari continues to grapple with the rising level of insecurity in Nigeria, his home state, Katsina has stuck out like a sore thumb if the latest threat by a group of bandits is anything to go by.The letter, which has gone viral on many social media forums in the state, is presently being investigated by police to ascertain it’s authenticity.
“No matter what measures are put in place we are coming with 150 motorcycles and 7 Hilux vans to attack so get prepared till we come,’’ the letter, written in Hausa, warned. Another said, “People discuss this at every forum, we hardly sleep since this letter was found. Government should please step up and bring this to an end.”
A police spokesman in the state, Gambo Isah, said, “The village head approached me with it and such kind of issues you don’t take them for granted. We as well wrote and forwarded it to the next line of command available to us, the Palace of the Emir of Katsina and security operatives in our local government councils.
