Friday, February 20 2026 - Bandits on Wednesday night launched a violent attack on the Dabagin Yari community in Wurno Local Government Area of Sokoto State, killing several people and injuring many others.
A large number of residents, including women and children,
were also abducted during the assault.
Security analyst Bakatsine disclosed details of the attack
on Thursday in a post on X.
“Last night, bandits invaded the Dabagin Yari community in
Wurno LGA of Sokoto State. During the attack, several residents were killed,
many others sustained injuries, and a high number of people including women and
children were abducted.
“The assault has left the community in deep fear and mourning. How can anyone
justify calling such bandits MUSLIM or claiming their crimes are acts of JIHAD,
when Islam clearly forbids the murder of innocents, the kidnapping of women and
children, and the spreading of terror?,” Bakatsine wrote.
Authorities have yet to confirm details surrounding the
incident.
