The Senator representing Kaduna South, Danjuma La’ah, has condemned the killing of 15 persons by suspected bandits at Ungwan Doo Village.

This is an extension of the Mabushi community, in Atyap Chiefdom, in Zango Kataf Local Government Area of Kaduna State.

Hon. La’ah said that the bandits invaded the village in the early hours of Sunday.

They came in large numbers, shooting sporadically while killing their victims..

They also burned down 4 houses and left 15 people dead, mostly women and children, who were running for safety.

Those who sustained injuries have been taken to the hospital for proper treatment.

While commending the security agencies for their quick response, La’ah tasked the people of Southern Kaduna to be vigilant and protect their communities.

They were requested to report any suspicious movement of criminals to the authorities concerned.

The lawmaker also challenged the Kaduna State Government to rise to its constitutional responsibility.

Governor El-Rufai must protect the lives and property of the people.

He added that the government is not taking proactive measures, to curtail the unabated blood bath, lingering for years in the area.
