Some terrorists have killed three brothers, despite collecting N60m ransom out of the N100m they demanded.

The assailants had kidnapped their victims from their village in Lau Local Government Area of Taraba State.

The criminals reportedly demanded N100m from the victims’ father Alhaji Musa, who eventually paid N60m to them.

Abdullahi Usman, the spokesperson for the state police command, confirmed the incident.

The assailants also attacked other communities such as Ruwan Bore in Zamfara State. Also attacked are Gatawa, and Kurawa in Sokoto State.

According to an eyewitness, police and soldiers resisted the heavily armed terrorists.

“I women and children screamed; the security agents could not contain them because of their weapons,” said the eyewitness, identified only as Mamman.
