Bandits have attacked the Turare community in Dutsin-ma Local Government Area of Katsina State.
The bandits abducted an activist, Ibrahim Mai Katia, during the invasion.
While the activist was shot, his two wives were abducted to an unknown destination.
Kaita is known for his advocacy for good governance and has been a vocal and critical voice in efforts to improve the region.
Banditry, kidnapping and terrorism have been on the rise in Katsina for the last few years, with many attacks unreported.
The state government led by Umar Dikko Rada has also ramped up efforts aimed at addressing the situation with the creation of a Katsina Vigilante Service, a community policing initiative.
The latest attack is an indication that more needs to be done to reverse the trend.
