Heavily armed terrorists numbering over 200 have attacked Rumache Madalla in Bassa/Kukkoki ward in Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State, killing three persons and abducted several persons.
According to an eyewitness report, the terrorists stormed the Rumache-Madalla village in their large numbers on Thursday afternoon and unleashed mayhem on unsuspecting victims.
Co-convener, Concerned Shiroro Youths of Niger State, Sani Abubakar Yusuf Kokki said during the deadly encounter, three people were shot dead while scores were abducted and taken to an unknown destination.
