    IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- Bandits have attacked Bali town, in Bali Local Government Area, Taraba State, killing three persons while scores were reportedly abducted by the attackers

    Several sources in Bali said the attackers, who rode on motorcycles, attacked and killed a personnel of Taraba Marshall at a checkpoint near General Hospital before proceeding to individual houses to kill and abduct people.

    The Tiv central leader and Chief of Tiv in Bali, Zaki David Gbaa (Ter Tiv Bali II) told our correspondent that two of his subjects were killed and scores, mostly women, were abducted in the attack.

    “The attackers invaded the town at about 11pm. Two of my subjects were killed in the attack, and two others who were badly injured are receiving treatment in the hospital.

    “Many people, especially women, were abducted. It’s a terrible situation and I want to call on the government and security agencies to sit up and ensure the protection of the lives and property of citizens.

    “For over four hours, the bandits held the town shooting sporadically and there was no response from security agencies. People are losing hope of the government’s ability to protect them and I think the bandits are no more than our security agencies,” he said.

    This is even as the traditional ruler called on the government to support the injured who are receiving treatment in hospitals.

    Efforts to get the Police to react to the attack failed as the Taraba State Police Public Relations Officer, Abdullahi Usman, did not pick up calls made to his line.
