Armed bandits
dressed in army-camouflaged uniform have attacked travellers along the popular
Izom junction in Gurara local government area of Niger state. Witnesses said
the hoodlums carted away valuables worth thousands of naira from the travellers.
The three-man gang reportedly halted the
vehicles and ordered all the passengers to lie face down before dispossessing
them of their valuables. The operation
lasted for more than thirty minutes and over six vehicles were robbed. The hoodlums were however chased away by members of the Niger State Vigilance Team. Niger
state police public relation officer, Pius Edobor said efforts are on to track
down the bandits.
