Armed bandits have kidnapped Alhaji Adam Barau El-Duniya, along with his wife and children, from their home in Shinkafi town, located in the Shinkafi Local Government Area of Zamfara State.

Reports indicate that the assailants raided El-Duniya’s residence on Wednesday night, firing gunshots into the air before breaking into the house.

This incident occurred less than 24 hours after another group of bandits attacked the Gidan Gara area of Shinkafi town.

According to sources, villages around Shinkafi have recently been plagued by frequent bandit attacks, forcing many residents to flee their ancestral homes in search of safer locations.

The Zamfara State Police Command has yet to issue a statement regarding the incident at the time of this report.
