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.
