The recent attack on the people of Waramu village is another sad development in the history of banditry violence in Zamfara.
According to the source, the bandits invaded the town since around 8:00 noon and begin shooting sporadically to scare the residents.
Throughout the hours they spent perfecting the attack it was reported that they shot many innocent people, injured others and also set over fifty houses ablaze.
Rilwanu villager Anka is a former ADC Chairman for Waramu he told newsmen that the bandits armed with deadly weapons invaded the Waramu village set ablaze over fifty houses including local grain silos.
This development in Waramu is the latest among the series of armed bandit attacks against various communities in Anka emirate.
With the exception of some parts of Anka town majority of the political wards in Anka had either been dismantled or terrorized by these deadly bandits.
The popular Mayanchi-Anka-Dakitakwas and Gummi road has become almost non motorable as bandits can be spotted in every part of that road ready for an attack..
In some quarters, commuters from Gummi no longer travel to Gusau the capital through Anka-Mayanchi road due to the fear of the bandits and instead they go through Sokoto-Talatar Mafara to access Gusau city.
