At least three people were killed on Wednesday in Danjibga village, located in the Tsafe Local Government Area of Zamfara State, after armed bandits attacked the community. The incident was reported on Thursday, December 4, 2025, by security analyst Bakatsine on X.
According to Bakatsine, the attack began when a group of gunmen entered a local shop and attempted to steal Rufaida yoghurt worth ₦3,500 without paying. The shop owner insisted on receiving payment, which provoked the men. They became angry, abandoned the yoghurt, and left the store.
However, less than an hour later, the gunmen returned, heavily armed, and opened fire, resulting in the deaths of three individuals. The attack also forced residents to flee the area and led to the looting of the shop.
Bakatsine stated, “Yesterday evening in the Danjibga community of Tsafe LGA in Zamfara State, a group of bandits entered a local shop and attempted to take Rufaida yoghurt worth ₦3,500 without payment. When the shop owner insisted on payment, the gunmen became angry, abandoned the yoghurt, and left. They then returned less than an hour later and started shooting sporadically, which killed three people, forced residents to flee, and looted the shop.”
As of the time of this report, authorities have not released an official statement regarding the incident.
