Kebbi State Governor Appeals for Unity Following Bandit Attack

Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has appealed for sustained prayers and unity among residents following a deadly bandit attack in Danko/Wasagu Local Government Area.

Gunmen invaded Wasagu town, abducting dozens, including 25 students from Government Girls' Secondary School in Maga.

One staff member was killed, and another injured in the attack.

The Kebbi State Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Nafiu Abubakar, confirmed the attack, saying a combined team of police and military operatives had already begun a rescue operation.

The governor has dispatched his deputy to assess the situation and reassure residents of the government's commitment to their safety.

The attack is believed to have been carried out by bandits from neighboring Zamfara State.

Governor Idris has convened security conferences with key national figures to address the insecurity issue, pledging his administration's commitment to confronting the problem.
