Gunmen Kill Sokoto Man Who Used Mosque Loudspeaker to Warn Villagers of Attacks

Gunmen have killed two residents of Yar Bulutu community in Sabon Birni Local Government Area of Sokoto State, including Malam Nasiru, during a Thursday night raid. Residents said the attackers also stole livestock. Nasiru was reportedly targeted because he used the mosque loudspeaker to warn villagers whenever armed men were seen near the community. The incident has renewed concerns about insecurity in Sabon Birni, where communities have faced repeated attacks, abductions and cattle rustling. With limited rapid security response, many residents rely on local early-warning measures to alert others of approaching attackers.
