Drama as villagers abduct bandits’ wives in Zamfara

 

Residents of a small community in Zamfara State have had one back at the bandits who have been oppressing them for years.

After enduring endless taxation, beating, kidnapping and other forms of harassment from the gunmen who have turned the once peaceful state into a terror axis,residents of Birnin Magaji, recently decided to bare their own fangs at the terrorists.

The gunmen had recently carried out a fresh raid in the area kidnapping some residents for ransom.

But while the terrorists were busy counting the hours and days for the ransom to come, youths in the village intercepted wives of the bandits including a pregnant woman who were on transit, according to online publication, PR Nigeria.

Apparently shocked by the audacity of the villagers,the bandits opted to enter into negotiation to resolve the matter.

The publication quoted a youth leader in the area as saying that during the latest raid conducted by the bandits, they invaded some farms and threatened the farmers before they took them away.
