Suspected gunmen have attacked Dudun Doki village in Gwadabawa local government area of Sokoto state.

According to eyewitnesses, the attackers stormed the village at around 1:30 am in the early hours of Sunday.

Over 10 people have been killed and many others abducted.

The victims included men, women, and children, who were caught off guard by the sudden attack.

In March this year, Sokoto State experienced a devastating attack when suspected gunmen launched two separate assaults on local government areas, resulting in the tragic loss of three lives and the abduction of 16 individuals, including a woman and 15 Tsangaya students.

The first attack occurred in Turba village, Isa local government area, where the gunmen claimed the life of a village head and two others.

In a separate incident, 15 students of Gidan Bakuso Tsangaya School in Gada local government area were kidnapped.

The Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, has declared Sunday, June 16, as Eid-el-Kabir day after affirming that Friday is the first day of Dhul Hijjah.

Sultan disclosed this in a statement on Friday by the Chairman of the Advisory Committee on Religious Affairs to the Sultanate Council, Sambo Junaid, in Sokoto State.

”His Eminence, the Sultan felicitates with Nigeria’s Muslim Ummah and wishes them Allah’s guidance and blessings.

“The Sultan, while urging the Muslim Ummah to continue to pray for peace, progress and development of the country also wishes all Muslims a Happy Eid-El-Kabir. May Allah (SWT) accept our religious deeds, amen”, the Sultanate council said in the statement.

Earlier, Saudi Arabia announced the sighting of the Dhul Hijjah crescent, signalling the beginning of the 12th Islamic month.

Saudi Arabia’s Supreme Court affirmed that Friday marks the beginning of the holy month.

Also, the Hajj pilgrimage for 1445 AH-2024 will commence on Friday, June 14, with the day of Arafah falling on Saturday, June 15.

With the development, the Muslim biggest festival, Eid Al-Adha, will be observed on Sunday, June 16, 2024.

The Arafat Day, which precedes the festival, will fall on June 15.
