Tragedy Strikes Ewehko: Daylight Bandit Attack Leaves Five Dead and Homes in Flames
In a sad turn of events, the peaceful Ewehko community, located within Maro Ward of Kajuru Local Government Area in Kaduna State, was violently disrupted by bandits.
This attack occurred on the afternoon of June 17, 2024, resulting in the tragic loss of five community members who were gathered for a meeting.
Benjamin Maro, a local, shared the harrowing details of the incident, stating that the bandits struck the village known as Unguwar Paul at 2 pm.
The aftermath was devastating, with four men and one woman found deceased. The community is currently conducting searches in the nearby areas for any additional victims.
Reuben Maro, another local, reported that the attackers didn’t stop at taking lives; they also set motorcycles ablaze and burned down several homes.
The community is in mourning and shock over this unexpected and brutal attack.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
