Bandits kidnap nursing mother, baby, others in Kaduna

Some bandits in the early hours of Friday reportedly invaded Tudun Mun Tsira Village of Zangon Shanu, Samaru in Sabon Gari Local Government Area of Kaduna State and abducted a nursing mother with her baby.

Zango-Shanu is a stone throw away from the main campus of the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

During the attack, two other residents of the area were also kidnapped by the hoodlums. Their names were given as Mallam Abubakar Garba Aliyu and his son, Salimi Abubakar.

It was gathered that the bandits stormed the area in large numbers on motorcycles, wielding sophisticated weapons.

A source who craved anonymity told our correspondent that it was possible that the hoodlums came in from nearby villages where they had been operating.

The source said, “The bandits came in large numbers. They rode on motorcycles, each wielding dangerous weapons

“There is the possibility that they came in from kasuwar Da’a axis in Giwa Local Government Area which is very close to our settlement.

“At Tudun Mun Tsira, the hoodlums abducted a nursing mother and her baby and moved to another village named Hayin Liman where they kidnapped an old man and his son.”

There was no official statement either from the state government as of the time of filing this report as the state police command’s spokesman, ASP Mohammad Jalige, neither respond to his call or text message.
