Unidentified gunmen suspected to be bandits have reportedly killed six operatives of the Zamfara State Community Protection Guards, CPG, popularly known as Askarawa and four local vigilantes in an ambush in Anka Local Government Area of the state.

The operatives were reportedly returning from a successful joint operation led by the Nigerian Army, which resulted in the killing of several bandits.

However, as they made their way back, they were ambushed by some recalcitrant bandits, leading to the tragic loss of ten lives.

The State Governor, Dauda Lawal, confirmed the killing of security operatives in the ambush.

In a statement on his verified Facebook page, the governor disclosed that the victims were part of a team that had conducted an operation alongside military personnel in Anka before they were attacked around Bagega axis.

Lawal further disclosed that six members of the Community Protection Guards, CPGs, and four local vigilantes also known as “Yan Sakai” lost their lives in the ambush.

The governor added that three persons are still missing, including two members of the community Protection Guards and one local vigilante.

“I got information that gunmen ambushed some Zamfara State Community Protection Guards, CPG, in Anka Local Government. The incident occurred yesterday when security forces and the State Community Protection Guards, CPG, led by the Nigerian Army attacked the hideouts of the bandits and successfully neutralized several bandits and recovered their weapons.

“The information made available to me that on their way back when the bandits ambushed them at Bagega and opened fire on them killing six Zamfara Community Protection Guards, CPG, and four Yansakai which their burial was conducted Sunday morning,” he said.
