Eight Soldiers Killed in Kaduna Ambush by ‘Repentant’ Bandits
Eight Nigerian soldiers have been ambushed and killed in Kaduna State by a group described as “repentant” bandits, according to family sources and local reports. The soldiers were attacked along the Kaduna River axis, between Chikun and Igabi LGAs. One officer and seven soldiers died, while another senior officer wounded in an earlier attack is now receiving treatment. The incident has reignited debate over the government’s policy of engaging bandits through dialogue and rehabilitation. Critics warn the approach may be endangering both troops and civilians, calling for a review of the strategy. (Source: Sahara Reporters)
