In a statement on Thursday, spokesman of the Southern Kaduna Peoples Union (SOKAPU), Luka Binniya, said the gunmen burnt houses in Sabon Kaura, Zaman Dabo and Chibob communities.

Binniya explained that the terrorists invaded the villages in large numbers and opened fire on residents, destroying property worth millions of naira.

“The terrorists also took advantage of the absence of the military in the early hours of Tuesday at a checkpoint between Ungwan Wakili and Abuyab and vandalised the only bridge linking the two communities.

“As I am talking to you, not even a motorcycle can cross that bridge now. Something urgent needs to be done in order to fix the bridge because the people in those communities are living at the mercy of those terrorists,” he said.
