Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal, has expressed his condolences following the k!lling of nine operatives of the Community Protection Guards, a state-owned security outfit, in the Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara state.

The bandits attacked the CPG personnel otherwise known as Askarawa while on duty at a checkpoint on the outskirts of Tsafe town around 8:am on Monday.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, October 8, by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Sulaiman Idris, the governor condemned the attack, describing it as a “barbaric act” committed by bandits who were on the run due to the ongoing military operations in the state.

He commended the bravery of the CPG operatives and other security forces for their relentless efforts to protect the lives and property of Zamfara residents.

“I received the unfortunate report of an ambush by bandits in Tsafe LGA, during which nine of our brave CPG members were killed. The ambush on our guards is a cowardly act by bandits who are dispersed and on the run due to sustained onslaughts by our troops across the state,” the governor stated.

He assured residents that the state government would continue its renewed offensive against banditry in Zamfara and the entire region, reiterating his administration’s commitment to restoring peace and security.

“I want to take this opportunity, on behalf of the government and people of Zamfara, to extend my condolences to the families and loved ones of our brave guards. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten. I hope those injured recover as quickly as possible.”

The governor pledged to provide necessary support to the families of the fallen CPG members, emphasising that the government would stand by them during this difficult period.
