National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Lagos State governor, Sen. Bola Tinubu, on Thursday, announced a donation of N50 million to Zamfara communities recently attacked by bandits.

Thelagostimes recalls that at least 58 people were reported killed last week when bandits raided some villages in Bukkuyum and Anka Local Government Areas of the state.

Tinubu announced the donation shortly after he commiserated with Gov. Bello Matawalle in Gusau, Zamfara.

The APC national leader called for sustained prayers to overcome the insecurity situation in the state.

He was accompanied on the visit to Gusau by Sen. Kashim Shettima, former Borno governor, the former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), Malam Nuhu Ribadu and former APC National Vice Chairman, South-west, Chief Pius Akinyelure.

Gov. Bello Matawalle, who received the APC leader, said that his visit would further console the bereaved communities and the entire people of the state.
