“The authorities need to do more in addressing the escalating violence by raiding the bandits’ hideouts in the rocky terrain”, Mr Suleiman said.

The traditional leader said the bandits forced residents to abandon their homes after centuries of living in the area.

 

 

 

“We don’t have any place to go because even our great-grandparents were born in this area, and the bandits are bragging that no amount of force can stop them when they plan an attack in Bauchi or neighbouring Gombe State,” Suleiman added.

 

The resident said the attackers ambushed vigilantes patrolling Mansur, Digare, and Yalo farming communities near an oil field in Alkaleri LG.

 

Residents said the attacks were causing panic in the farming communities where the people were preparing for the planting season.

 

The lawmaker representing the area in the House of Representatives, Kabir Yusuf, said 19 villagers, including nine members of a vigilante group, were massacred on 3 May by armed persons at Sabon Sara village.

 

Mr Yusuf, while moving a motion for urgent intervention in the farming communities in Bauchi, said the attackers also destroyed properties worth millions of Naira and rustled about 200 cows.

 

The lawmaker said the criminals are believed to be hiding in Madam Forest and called for the urgent attention of security agencies to dislodge them.
