Armed groups want twelve towns in Zamfara State to pay them 60 million naira. A reporter named Bakatsine shared this news on the social media platform X. The bandits targeted these communities because they think people there help the military find them. People living in these areas worry about attacks if they cannot collect enough money.
The communities facing these demands include Koloma, Dan Hayin Zargado, Zargado, Dan Godabe, Sabuwar Tunga, Makini, Bubaka, Yelwa, Bahwada, Koda, Manya, and Kabusu. All these places are in northeastern Nigeria, where armed groups often cause trouble. The bandits blame locals for working with soldiers during operations against them. Most families cannot afford to contribute to such large payments. These threats make daily life harder for everyone in these rural areas.
