BREAKING: Again, Gunmen Strike In Abuja, Abduct Residents
- Gunmen have again struck in Abuja and abducted residents.
EKOHOTBLOG reports that unknown gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have abducted a father, Abdullahi Benda, and his 23-year-old son, Jibrin Abdullahi Benda, in Abuja.
It was gathered that the latest abduction in the nation’s capital occurred at Yangoji village in Kwali Area Council in the wee hours of Friday.
A neighbour simply identified as Zakari disclosed that the gunmen, who positioned themselves at strategic places, scaled the fence of the victim’s house.
He said, “In fact, one of the kidnappers was even standing at a window at the back of my room shooting into the air, because it is a fence that separates us from the victim.
“The other members of the gang jumped over the fence and entered the house,” Zakari disclosed.
The resident further revealed that the assailants forcefully destroyed the doors and went into the room and whisked the man and one of his sons to an unknown destination.
