The attack occurred at around 12 a.m. on Thursday, with the assailants armed with dangerous weapons. They stormed Tsiga’s residence, shooting as they forced their way in.
A reliable source confirmed one bandit was killed during the attack, but no residents were reported dead.
When asked by Newsmen, Police spokesperson, DSP Abubakar Aliyu, said: “I am yet to be briefed on the facts of the reports. I’ll get back to you as soon as I get the details. Yes, there was a reported case of abduction in Tsiga town, but we are yet to confirm who was kidnapped.”
