Residents of Ungwan Tama community in Kwaturi Ward, Kachia Local Government Area of Kaduna State have been thrown into grief following a deadly bandit attack that claimed the life of Mr. Zakaria Samaila Kure. The assault, which occurred recently, also left several people injured while another resident was abducted by the attackers.
According to local sources, the incident marks the third violent attack reported within the Kwaturi axis in the past 60 days, heightening fear and frustration among residents who say they feel increasingly unsafe in their own communities. Many described the repeated assaults as devastating and called for urgent and decisive measures to halt the cycle of violence.
Community members expressed sorrow over the loss of Mr. Kure and concern for those injured and the individual taken captive. The recurring attacks have intensified calls for stronger security presence, improved intelligence gathering, and coordinated community protection strategies.
Residents and local stakeholders say the situation has reached a critical point and are urging authorities, community leaders, and citizens to work together to find lasting solutions that will restore peace and safety across Southern Kaduna.
