Monday, October 19, 2026 - Residents along the Gusau–Dansadau road in Zamfara State are living in fear following threats by suspected bandits, forcing some people to stop using their vehicles and disrupting transportation and business activities.
According to a post by Bakatsine (@DanKatsina50) on X, the
security situation has worsened following a reported attack on Yar Gada
community in Magami Ward, Gusau Local Government Area, where bandits allegedly
set residents’ vehicles on fire.
The incident has raised concerns among residents, who fear
further attacks following threats reportedly linked to the burning of up to 250
vehicles in the area.
With some residents afraid to travel in their own vehicles,
daily activities and commercial movements along the route have been affected.
Bakatsine expressed concern over the situation and called
for urgent action from the government and security agencies to protect
residents and their property.
“How long will people continue to live in fear and abandon
their daily activities before the government and security agencies take
decisive action to protect lives and property?” the post asked.
