On Thursday, October 29, 2026, an attack occurred in Tuje community, resulting in injuries to three individuals. The incident involved youths from Talai Village in Itas Local Government Area of Bauchi State, who allegedly invaded Tuje community and targeted the residence of Isyaku Tuje.
According to Badruddeen Tijjani Mahmud, spokesman for the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), family members of Isyaku Tuje were assaulted during the attack. The injured included Kamilu Abdulkarim, Musbahu Yau, and Ubaida Musa, with two of Isyaku Tuje’s brothers also sustaining injuries.
Following a distress call, NSCDC personnel, in collaboration with the police and local hunters, mobilized to the scene, but the attackers had already fled back to Bauchi State. In response, joint security operatives were deployed to Tuje to maintain order and prevent reprisals, coordinated by the Chairman of Kiyawa Local Government Council.
The NSCDC assured residents that investigations were ongoing to identify the attackers and emphasized the importance of cooperation with security agencies.
