An Assistant Superintendent of Police, Bala Wakili, has been killed while engaging suspected bandits in a gun duel in Kebbe Local Government Area of Sokoto State.
Wakili, who was attached to the Kebbe Police Division, reportedly lost his life during an operation to repel armed attackers who invaded two communities in the area.
According to Daily Trust, the suspected bandits stormed Girkau and Zugu villages at about 4 p.m on Monday and allegedly made away with an unspecified number of livestock.
A source in the area said, “The security operatives engaged the bandits in a fierce exchange of fire, but the attackers were in large numbers.
“They eventually overpowered the team, killed ASP Bala Wakili and set ablaze two patrol vehicles one belonging to the police and the other to the Sokoto Community Guard Corps.”
