Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal of Sokoto state, who confirmed this today in a state broadcast, said the attack occurred in Dalijan, Rakkoni and Kalhu communities Monday night.
He commiserated with the people of Rabah local government area on the loss.
“I pray Allah (SWT) to forgive the deceased persons and grant us the fortitude to bear the loss.”
The Sokoto State governor pointed out that: “This sad development, once again, makes it necessary to call on our Security personnel to rededicate themselves to their more critical duty of defending the lives and property of our people,” he said.
