Attempts to get the state police command spokesperson, Sadik Abubakar, to confirm the incident failed.
Deadly attacks were carried out across eight villages in the same Rabah LGA last year with many people killed and others displaced.
In January, no fewer than 26 people were killed when bandits invaded Warwana, Kursa and Dutsi villages in the same Rabah LGA of the state.
According to the District Head of Gandhi, Alhaji Abubakar Maccido, the bandits had stormed the villages on motorcycle shooting sporadically.
The district head had also expressed fear that as the 2019 elections were then approaching, there was a possibility that his subjects might not be allowed to exercise their franchise for the fear of further attacks.
He had pleaded with government to deploy enough security personnel to contain the bandits.
Governor Aminu Tambuwal had also in February this year confirmed the death of 16 people in fresh bandit attack at Dalijan, Rakkoni and Kalhu communities – all in the same Rabah LGA of the state.
With the Saturday incident, banditry, which started in the state on July 9 last year, has claimed a total of 131 lives.
