Bandits on Monday invaded the Yar Bulutu weekly market in Sabon Birni Local Government Area of Sokoto State, and killed six persons, including three police officers.

The attack was carried out on the same day President Muhammadu Buhari came to the state to declare the Chief of Army Staff’s 2022 Conference open.

Confirming the attack which took place around 12:30pm, the member representing Sabon Birni South at the state house of assembly, Sa’idu Ibrahim, told newsmen that the bandits came on about 20 motorcycles with each motorcycle carrying three persons.

He said;

“First they went to where the mobile policemen who were guiding the market were stationed. They killed two of them and set one of their vehicles on fire.

“They later killed another policeman who ran into the bush, dragged his body from the bush and throw it into the burning vehicle. They also killed three other persons in the market and injured several others.

“Right now I am with one of my brothers at Orthopaedic hospital in Wamakko because he was shot in the leg by the attackers.”

“The operation ought to have been carried out in all the states experiencing banditry in the North West simultaneously but because it is not taking place in Sokoto, the state now became a safe haven for bandits dislodged in those states.”
