SOKOTO — Governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in Sokoto State, Hon. Manir Muhammad Dan’iya, has called for an urgent overhaul of the state’s security architecture following renewed bandit attacks on Dan Gulbi community in Tureta Local Government Area.
Dan’iya, a former Deputy Governor of Sokoto State, described the recurring violence as a national tragedy requiring immediate and decisive action.
His reaction followed reports of a fresh attack on the community on Tuesday, barely 48 hours after an earlier assault that reportedly claimed the lives of 17 residents and visitors who had returned for the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
