Bandits terrorising Kaduna communities are forcing villagers to pay levies before they are allowed to harvest crops from their farms in the state.<\/p>\n

The affected farmers from Kidandan and Galadima villages were being forced, while those from Angular Fala\u2019u and Kerawa villages were constantly harassed and kidnapped while working on their farms.<\/p>\n

A source from Kidandan village explained that their people, mostly farmers, pay from N70,000 to N100,000 before they can harvest their farm produce.<\/p>\n

He explained that those who refuse to pay are either kidnapped, killed or have their farm produce seized by the bandits.<\/p>\n

He listed the names of the bandit warlords terrorising residents in the area to include Buhari; his deputy, Gana\u2019i, while the third in command is called Kwalameri.<\/p>\n

He warned, \u201cThere could be a shortage of food crops in the state if care is not taken, because many farmers have abandoned their farms due to banditry in the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mansir Hassan, could not be reached by phone to comment on the development.<\/p>\n
