How Katsina Governor Led High-Powered Security Delegation to Villages Affected by Terrorists Attacks

Katsina State Governor, Dikko Umaru Radda, has led a high-powered security delegation to villages affected by recent terrorists attacks.

The delegation visited Maharba in Matazu Local Government Area on Saturday, where five members of the Community Security Watch Corps (CWatch) were killed in a deadly ambush.

The CWatch personnel were traveling in a Hilux vehicle on a reinforcement mission when they were intercepted by about 20 bandits on motorcycles, who opened fire and set the vehicle ablaze.

Governor Radda arrived at the scene, where the charred remains of the Hilux were still smoldering, and visited other hard-to-reach communities to assess security conditions and engage with residents.
