About six members of Community Protection Guards (CPG) have been brutally murdered following an ambush by armed men in Bungudu Local Government Area of Zamfara state.
Security expert, Zagazola Makama revealed on his X handle that several others remain unaccounted for and are feared kidnapped.

The attackers laid siege on Thursday, as the team went from Bungudu to Yar Katsina in the Kekun Waje District to pay their respects to the family of a fallen colleague who had been killed by suspected bandits just the day before.

According to sources, the group was caught off guard by heavily armed men who emerged along the route and opened fire without warning.

Six members of the community guard were killed instantly in the ambush.

Reports suggest the armed men seized several pump-action rifles from the fallen guards and also took away a motorcycle.

By the time troops arrived at the scene, the assailants had already left the surrounding forest, making pursuit difficult.

The bodies of the slain guards were later conveyed to Bungudu Town, where preparations for their burial are now underway.

Meanwhile, a search-and-rescue mission has been launched in hopes of locating those still missing.
