BREAKING: THREE KIDS AND A WOMAN ARE KIDNAPPED BY BANDITS IN ABUJA

Babatunji Wusu –

On Sunday evening, bandits ambushed the Zone 5 section of the Kubwa Extension 2 Relocation Estate on Arab Road in the Federal Capital Territory, capturing a mother along with her three children, one of whom is six months old.

On Sunday, December 10, between 8 and 9 p.m., the gunmen opened fire randomly, spreading chaos across the neighborhood.

Speaking with our correspondent about the development, a resident who wished to remain anonymous said that every December, kidnapping has turned into a regular occurrence in the neighborhood.

“This kidnapping has turned into a yearly tradition here in December,” he declared. If you recall correctly, there was a similar kidnapping occurrence in the area in December; this is a new one, and it is concerning.

“This kidnapping is due to a lack of adequate security in the area,” observed another local. Here at Zone 5, Kubwa Extension 2 Relocation estate, they abducted a mother and her three children, one of them was six months old, last night.

As of the time of publication, the FCT Police Command had not released an official statement regarding the development.

The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, responded to our correspondent’s message by saying she will investigate the incident and get back to her.

Adeh responded, “Please allow me to investigate and get back to you as soon as possible.”

On Monday, our journalist called the FCT CP, Haruna Garba, but she did not answer.
