Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Bandits terrorizing many parts of Zamfara State have placed N24 million levy on at least nine communities in Bukkuyum Local Government Area of the State.<\/p>\n

The assailants, who reportedly issued letters to community leaders in the affected areas, asked each community to pay from N500,000 to N5m or be faced with attack.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the bandits threatened to kill all members of the nine communities if they failed to adhere to their instructions.<\/p>\n

Residents of the communities told journalists yesterday that the communities have started mobilizing to pay the bandits as demanded.<\/p>\n

It was gathered that the letters were delivered to community leaders through some kidnap victims who recently regained freedom.<\/p>\n

The nine communities include, Yangalma, Tungar Gebe, Wawan Iccen Ibrahim, Wawan Iccen Salihu, Galle, Nannarki, Ruwan Kura, Gangara and Gaude.<\/p>\n

Efforts by DAILY POST to reach the State Police Command for a comment on the development proved abortive as of press time.<\/p>\n
