A mob in Yantumaki town in Danmusa local government area of Kastina state had burnt billboard with the picture of President Muhammadu Buhari and the logo of the All Progressives Congress (APC) emblazoned on it.
Kastina has recently been at the receiving end of vicious and horrendous activities of bandits with many Killed and properties lost.
Buhari is a native of Katsina.
According to TheCable, residents of the town, on Tuesday morning, took to the street to express their dissatisfaction with the security situation in the state.
This development is coming a week after Aminu Masari, governor of Katsina, announced that his administration had withdrawn from the peace deal with bandits.
The state government had entered a peace agreement with the gunmen. But despite the accord, communities in wanton killings and attacks didn’t cease in the state.
On June 1, bandits shot dead 60-year-old Abu Atiku, district head of Yantumaki.
The gunmen also attacked some communities in Batsari LGA of the state, and killed the council’s APC chairman.
The protesters reportedly blocked the Katsina/Kankara major highway and blocked the road leading to the town.
They were said to have been infuriated by the kidnap of one Mansir Yusuf and his daughter by bandits around 1 am on Tuesday.
