Two people have been kidnapped after suspected bandits attacked a farm in the Kwali Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Thursday evening, July 28.
DailyTrust reports that a resident of the Chida community in Kwali, Dangana Musa, said the two people, a driver next to his conductor, were kidnapped in the latest attack.
He said the driver, identified as Atazamu Azaki and his conductor, Ayuba John, were loading charcoal at the farm in the area when the bandits broke in and kidnapped them.
The eyewitness added that the kidnappers wielding advanced weapons took the duo away at gunpoint, but later released John, who was asked to inform the victim’s relatives about the kidnapping.
“It was after they had traveled some distance that the kidnappers released the conductor and asked him to go home and inform the driver’s family to collect money for ransom,” Musa said.
The spokesman for the FCT Police Command, DSP Adeh Josephine, has not yet commented on the latest kidnapping incident.
