NSCDC Resists Bandits’ Attack On FG’s Silo.
Agro Rangers of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps have resisted an attack by suspected bandits on the Federal Government’s grain silo in the Dutsinma Local Government Area of Katsina State.
The spokesman for the NSCDC, Mr Buhari Hamisu, said in a statement in Katsina that the bandits wanted to destroy the silo and abduct its Manager, Mr Lawal Shitu-Yar’adua before the Agro Rangers responded swiftly, and engaged the bandits in a fierce gun duel for over two hours.
Hamisu said the NSCDC had detailed more personnel to the location and increased the firepower of the operatives to prevent a recurrence of such an attack.
