Terrorists have attacked Dansadau community in Maru Local Government Area of Zamfara State, killing 3 persons and abducting 7 others.
Channels TV reports that the armed terrorists attacked the community around 2:30am and the siege lasted for about 4 hours, ending in the early hours of Friday morning.
An armoured personnel carrier belonging to the Nigerian military was also set ablaze by the bandits.
This attack is coming barely a few days after 100 kidnapped victims from Manawa village under the Dansadau district were released by the marauders, and barely a week after a military Alpha jet was shot down by gunmen in the state.
Dansadau community is about ninety-nine kilometers from Gusau the Zamfara State capital and is one of the hottest zones in terms of banditry, kidnappings, and other related crimes in the state.
