Masari Bemoans Relentless Killings in Katsina by Bandits
Katsina State Governor, Hon. Aminu Masari, yesterday said the state was under siege by bandits and kidnappers despite the peace accord he signed with them.
He said the bandits on Tuesday invaded a village in Sabuwa Local Government Area and killed five people and rustled all their animals, leaving many others with varying degree of injuries. The governor, who admitted that the state was in a serious and desperate condition considering the resurfacing of banditry and kidnapping, said food shortage might engulf the state following the inability of farmers to access their farmlands.
“Yesterday , the DPO of Faskari Local Government Area was nearly killed. Presently, he is at the orthopedic hospital suffering from two gunshots and we hope he will survive the injuries.
