Seven Killed, Many Abducted in Fresh Bandit Attack in Katsina State
Seven people were killed in a recent bandit attack on Maidabino village in Danmusa Local Government Area of Katsina State. An unspecified number of women and children were abducted and taken to a nearby forest.
Eyewitnesses reported that the bandits invaded the village at around 10:00 pm on Saturday, June 22, and operated for about three hours, shooting sporadically to scare residents. The attackers set ablaze those they killed and destroyed several houses, shops, and motor vehicles.
Katsina State police spokesman, ASP Abubakar Sadiq, confirmed the incident and stated that an investigation is ongoing.
“Yesterday, June 22, 2024, at about 2000 hrs, armed bandits in their numbers, armed with dangerous weapons, shooting sporadically, attacked Maidabino village, Danmusa LGA, where they shot and killed about seven (7) persons,” he said.
“Investigation is currently ongoing, as further developments will be communicated in due course.”
Two Nigerian music stars, Rema and Asake, have earned a place in former U.S. President Barack Obama’s annual list of favorite songs for 2024.
On Saturday, Obama shared his handpicked selection of tracks from the year, and both artists’ songs were included.
Rema’s hit single Yayo and Asake’s collaboration with Travis Scott on Active made the prestigious list..
The list also saw the inclusion of another African artist, South Africa’s Tyla, who was featured for her song Jump, a track featuring Gunna and Skillibeng.
In addition to the African stars, Nigerian-American singers Shaboozey and Jordan Adetunji also appeared on Obama’s playlist.
Shaboozey’s A Bar Song and Adetunji’s Kehlani were celebrated for their unique sound, adding diversity to the mix.
As expected, the list also featured big names from the global music scene, with legendary artists like Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and Karol G all making an appearance.
These mainstream stars continue to dominate the music industry, but Obama’s inclusion of emerging artists such as Rema and Asake shows his appreciation for a variety of musical genres.
On sharing his list with his followers via X (formerly Twitter), Obama encouraged fans to explore the tracks, saying, “Here are my favorite songs from this year!
Check them out if you’re looking to shake up your playlist, and let me know if there’s a song or artist I should make sure to listen to.”
