Pay Us N24m Tax or Be Ready For Attacks, Bandits Write Nine Zamfara Villages

Nine communities in Bukkuyum Local Government Area of Zamfara State have been asked by bandits to pay a compulsory tax of the sum of N24 million or be attacked.
The communities would pay from N500,000 to N5m, according to the bandits.

A source said the communities were Yangalma, Tungar Gebe, Wawan Iccen Ibrahim, Wawan Iccen Salihu, Galle, Nannarki, Ruwan Kura, Gangara and Gaude.
“The bandits had ten days ago, stayed in Gando forest and launched attacks on 7 communities in Bukkuyum and Anka Local Government Areas.”
“They killed dozens and rustled over 1,900 cows.”
“Some of the community leaders who received letters from the bandits reported the matter to the authorities,” according to a local.
However, there was no reaction from official quarters on the development.
