Suspected bandits on Sunday attacked the Kubwa community of the Federal Capital Territory, abducting four persons.
Our correspondent gathered that the hoodlums struck the Baipe, Kubwa, around 2am.
Sources said four persons, all male, were abducted, as the bandits escaped through the hills.
A source said, “They kidnapped four men; one of them is Yoruba, two are Igala, and the fourth one is Tiv.”
Another source revealed that during the attack, one of the victims was stabbed in the chest in the presence of his pregnant wife.
He said, “The Yoruba man was stabbed in the chest in the presence of his pregnant wife who was appealing that they spare him. But they took him away despite her pleas and money offer.”
The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Josephine Adeh, said, “I will confirm and get back to you, please.”
The New Year’s Day attack comes barely four weeks after bandits, on Tuesday, December 6, 2022, killed two persons and abducted seven residents in the Kubwa Extension II Relocation Estate, along the Arab Road area of the FCT, Abuja.
