Armed bandits in Zamfara State have abducted and later killed Senator Kabiru Marafa’s sister, Hajiya Ade Marafa.

The Senator’s sister was said to have been “slaughtered” on Monday night.

However, Hajiya Marafa’s husband, who is a village head, was spared.

He was taken to one of the dens of the terror gang for likely ransom demands.

Also on Monday night, bandits burnt down Takoka, Tudun Wada Mai Jatau and Doka villages, killing scores and abducted five women.
