The Zamfara State Government has issued a stern warning to communities found supporting bandits, threatening to demolish any village aiding criminal activities.

Deputy Governor Malam Mani Mummuni disclosed this during a condolence visit to Tsafe Emirate after nine local security members of the Community Protection Guards (CPG) were killed in a bandit ambush on the Tsafe-Funtua road.

In a direct address to residents, Mummuni accused the Maikwanugga community of providing shelter and supplies to bandits.

He claimed the village, located less than half a kilometre from the main road, allowed bandits to stay overnight before they ambushed the CPG operatives tasked with protecting travellers.

He expressed frustration with communities that, by aiding bandits, work against efforts to secure Zamfara State.
