“But they were repelled by the military who got information about their operation,” the chairman of Goronyo Local Government Area, Abdulwahab Goronyo told our reporter.

 The marauders had blocked the road last Sunday after the market closed, killing one onion trader and abducted several others.

 Goronyo market is one of the major weekly markets in the eastern part of Sokoto State where bandits held sway.

 It would be recalled that several traders were killed in the market in another bandits’ attack last year.
