Kidnapping & Banditry

Notorious bandit, Samagi reportedly captured in Katsina [VIDEO]

Daily Post 40 minutes 1 mins read

The Katsina State Community Watch Corps has reportedly captured Samagi, a top commander in the bandit network led by notorious kingpin Kachalla Maha in Katsina State.

The group was reportedly responsible for the death of former Director of Defence Information, Major General Rabe Abubakar (rtd.).

Samagi was apprehended alongside another associate.

Samagi’s gang has been linked to several brutal attacks across the Matazu area of the state.

The development came a few days after Katsina vigilantes arrested two suspected ammunition suppliers to Kachalla Maha.

DAILY POST reports that bandits have continued to terrorise the North-West region amid worsening insecurity, with kidnappings and killings recorded in parts of the region.
