About 19 security operatives have reportedly been killed after bandits attacked the convoy of Kebbi State Deputy Governor, Colonel Samaila Yombe Dabai on Tuesday night.

According to reports, the bandits exchanged bullets with security operatives attached to the deputy governor’s convoy.

“It was face to face with the bandits and you know he is a retired military officer and he still has some military techniques which also helped him during the shootout with the bandits,”.

Sources reveal that the bandits who were on motorcycles laid an ambush for the deputy governor.

The attack is coming a day after 63 vigilante personnel were massacred by the gunmen. (Source: EmeraldNg)
