Boko Haram terrorists

At least 60 women have been kidnapped after terrorists attacked three villages in Maru Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

Four persons were also killed in the process.

According to ICIRNigeria, the attacks, which took place on Tuesday in Munawa, Malele and Randa villages, led to the k!llings and kidnap of residents, and the burning of huts and buildings within the area.

According to a report, the men in the villages had fled the town based on information received prior to the attack.

Efforts made by The ICIR to reach Spokesperson of the Zamfara State Police Command Mohammed Shehu and the Army Spokesperson Mohammed Yerima yielded no result as both neither picked their calls nor respond to WhatsApp messages sent to them.

Security in Nigeria has declined over the past few years, particularly in the North, due to the incessant k!llings and increased rate of mass abductions.

Kidnappings such as these have become a disturbing trend, leaving residents in constant fear and anxiety.

In April, The ICIR reported the k!lling of over 80 people in attacks by terrorists across five villages in Zamfara.

A few days ago, over 30 people were reportedly killed in terrorist attacks across villages in Zurmu Local Government Area of Zamfara.
