Terrorists Kill 2, Kidnap APC Chairman, 13 Others

Suspected terrorists launched a violent attack on Dan Auta village in the Sabuwa local government area of Katsina State early Friday morning.

The assault, which occurred around 2 AM, left two people dead, including a security operative from the Katsina State Community Watch Corps (KSCWC), and resulted in the abduction of 13 others, including women and children.

Among those taken was Alhaji Imamu, the chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in the area.

Witnesses reported that the attackers, armed with automatic weapons and riding motorcycles, arrived in large numbers.

Despite efforts from the KSCWC and local vigilante groups to fend off the assault, the sheer size of the attackers overwhelmed the local security team.

One KSCWC operative was killed while attempting to protect the community, and the second victim was shot after resisting abduction.

Several residents sustained injuries during the attack, with some receiving treatment at the local primary healthcare center.

This incident underscores the ongoing security challenges in Katsina State, which, like many regions in the North-West, continues to face frequent attacks from terrorists, kidnappers, and cattle rustlers, who often use the expansive forested areas as hideouts.
