Bandits have reportedly abducted over 100 persons in an attack on Mutunji community in Maru LGA of Zamfara state.
The bandits were said to have attacked the community on Friday night during Isha prayers.
The attack reportedly comes after a bandit kingpin identified as Damina gave residents of the community a one-week ultimatum to pay a levy of N50 million for their safety.
The failure of the residents to meet the deadline and pay the requested sum was said to have led to the abduction.
No death was reportedly recorded during the incident.
When contacted for comments, Yazid Abubakar, spokesperson of the Zamfara police command, did not respond at the time of filing this report.
