Governor Matawalle Condoles As Terrorists Kill 37, Kidnap 62 In Bungudu and Bukkuyum LGAs, Zamfara State

Terrorists have killed 37 people and kidnapped 62 in Bungudu and Bukkuyum Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Zamfara State.

Already, Governor Bello Matawalle has condoled with the families of those whose lives were lost, ordering the Ministry for Humanitarian Affairs and Disaster Management to immediately release relief materials to all victims of the attack and their families.

Sources said that 17 people were killed in two villages of Juyi and Doruwa in Bungudu Local Government, while 20 were killed in Ganar-Kiyawa village of Bukkuyum LGA.

Special Adviser to Governor Mattawale on Media, Zailani Bappa, in a press statement, said the Governor was deeply saddened by the recent attacks on some communities in the state.

He said, “It is unfortunate that this attack is coming at a time when we are experiencing improved peace in the state where we were able to host millions of people on an important religious event without a single incident.

“However, this and other isolated cases of banditry across the state will not deter our efforts at ensuring a peaceful Zamfara State, an oath we have taken to pursue with our fullest capability.”
