Armed bandits have attacked another community in Kaduna state, killing one and injuring many others.

The gunmen reportedly raided Ungwan Ayaba, a community close to Juji in Sabon Tasha ward of Chikun Local Government Area.

Ungwan Ayaba is a community located in Kakau Ward, Chikun LGA, few kilometres from Gonin Gora along Kaduna-Abuja Highway.

According to an eyewitness who pleaded anonymity, many residents have fled the community and have fled to surrounding towns for refuge.

“Many refugees are in my house right now after escaping from Ungwan Ayaba. It is pathetic and sad that the bandits are becoming more daring, even staging attack in broad daylight,” the witness said.

He also added that IDPs from Ungwan Ayaba currently in Juji are over 50, following bandits attacks on the community over the past three days.

”Two days ago, one of my cousins there was killed and three of his brothers were abducted.” He said.

The Kaduna state police command was yet to confirm the incident as at the time of filing this report.
