Mob kills 6 bandits in Kaduna

Residents of Sanga and Lere local government areas of Kaduna State on Christmas Eve killed six bandits at separate times after two people were killed, according to a security report presented to the Kaduna State Government on Friday.

According to the state’s Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, the operational feedback from security agents indicate that the bandits were killed by mob action.

The report reads in part: “On 24th December 2020 at Fadan Karshi in Sanga local government area, two bandits attacked a businessman and dispossessed him of money and other valuables.

“On receiving the distress call, the military and police set out to the location.

“However, on getting to the scene, some angry locals had already mobbed the bandits and burnt them to ashes.”

Aruwan further stated that on Thursday night, armed bandits opened fire on motorists plying the Aboro-Kafanchan Road, saying, “The bullets hit one Richard Sabo who in the course of driving knocked down one of the bandits to death.

“Sadly, Mr Sabo, who suffered bullet wounds, was confirmed dead at Gwantu General Hospital.”

In Lere LGA, Aruwan stated that security agencies reported that bandits from a neighbouring state who specialised in stealing livestock were also killed through mob action, adding that they were chased and overpowered at Domawa village where three of them met their end in the hands of a mob.

Aruwan revealed that the government had received a report of the killing of a commercial motorcyclist, Hudu Yahaya, of Ungwan Nungu village of Sanga LGA, adding that he was beheaded by bandits who escaped with his motorcycle.

He said, “Governor Nasir el-Rufai has sent condolences to the families of Richard Sabo and Hudu Yahaya and prayed for the repose of their souls.

“The governor has also made a strong appeal to citizens to continue to have recourse to the law and not resort to jungle justice.”
