Bandits have killed 13 persons on their farms at the Ijuwa area of the Alawa community, Shiroro Local Government Area (LGA) of Niger State.

The Chairman of the local government, Akilu Isyaku, confirmed the killing of the 13 farmers in an interview in Minna on Wednesday.

He said the bandits killed nine of the victims on a farmland at Ijuwa while four others were killed at a different location the same day.

A resident said the bandits targeted the community for attack over allegations that members supply intelligence to security agencies on bandits’ movements.

Meanwhile, the Niger State Acting Governor Yakubu Garba has described the attack as satanic and callous.

Garba, in a statement, commiserated with the affected families, community members and the entire people of Shiroro LGA over the unfortunate incident.

This attack occurred at the time farmers are expected to spend more time on their farms.

It was gathered that several other farmers far away from the scene of the attack have deserted their farmland for fear of attack. (vitalnewsngr.com)
