As the security situation in Yola continues to degenerate, a lecturer with Moddibo Adama University of Technology (MAUTECH), Yola, Dr A. A. Zemba has been robbed of his two jeeps.
Residents of Yola and environs said violent crimes have been on the increase despite the emergency rule and curfew imposed on the state.
Some residents of Sangere, the latest community that came under attack, said they could not understand how crime seems to be on the increase despite the emergency rule in the state.
“Before the emergency rule, we were living in relative peace, but now, we can’t sleep at night for fear of being attacked,” a resident, Sani Bello lamented.
The residents of the community were woken up by gun shots at about 1:50am yesterday when the men of the underworld struck, in what residents described as a growing case of armed robbery attacks in the state.
“The armed men, about a dozen, including a female ransacked houses, collecting the car keys of their victims and taking their cars away,” another resident said.
Many residents of Yola have now resorted to prayers as they say the latest surge of criminality seems to defy the security operatives under the emergency rule.
