Bandits Attacks, Kidnap Residents Of An Estate In The Heart Of Abuja

As the country is trying to recover from the shock of terrorist attack at a Catholic church in Owo in Ondo State, gunmen attacked and operated for over four hours, abducting a yet-to-be-identified number of residents.

Although details remain sketchy, a resident, said the gunmen gained access to Genuine Estate after Efab Queens on 6th Avenue, Gwarinpa. He explained to our correspondent on the telephone that the hoodlums were armed with bows, arrows, and machetes and were in large numbers.

The FCT Police Command, Josephine Adeh, told the journalists that the case was a robbery case not a kidnapping case. Adeh, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, said the police had already been mobilised to the scene to ascertain how the incident happened. She promised that the public would be duly notified after details of the incident had been ascertained.
