"I was working on my farm along side my son when I saw them. I quickly told my son to hide. We all climbed a tree thereafter, and they passed without noticing that we were there. Had they noticed that, we would have been finished by now." He said.

Hamisu further explained that fear has enveloped the residents of the villages such as Tamusge, Dawan Jiya, Sabuwar Tunga, Sabon Birni and Zanoka. He said armed bandits have been attacking the communities for sometimes now.
