Niger State Acting Governor, Comrade Yakubu Garba condemns the attack by bandits on Anguwan Mai-Giro community which is part of Rafi and Shiroro local government area of the State that led to the loss of some lives.

The Acting Governor in a statement by the Chief Press Secretary, Bologi Ibrahim, describes the attack as satanic, insensible, atrocious and callous.

He says it is very disheartening and disturbing for fellow humans to carry out such a barbaric and vicious act on their fellow humans.

The Acting Governor, while commiserating with the affected families, community members and the entire people of Shiroro local government area over the unfortunate incident, prays Allah to repose the souls of the departed, comfort their loved ones and grant quick healing to those injured.

He restated the Bago-led administration’s unwavering determination and commitment to taming the tide of insecurity in the State even as he encourages the Security Agencies not to be discouraged by the attacks on communities by the men of the underworld, assuring them of every support that would lead them to victory over evil.
