Horror: Armed gunmen change strategy, use babies as bait to rob victims

By Gabriel, l Udeh, Kaduna


A horrible and new strategy introduced by armed gunmen to kidnap or robbed neighborhood victims in Nigeria has been uncovered.

The new strategy is that, the armed gangster go about with wrapped new born baby in white cloth and intentionally drop it right in front of the gate of their victims and hide by the wall.

The robbers that will strategically position themselves, suddenly grabbed their victims when they come out of the gate of their house to rescue the baby that’ll be crying loudly and continuously..

The baby could be crying for over 30 minutes, until the voice is heard by the victims late at night.
An eyewitness who encountered them said “My husband and I witnessed a scene from the window of our home around 1:30 am to 2:45 am one night, and I have decided to share so that we all keep guard.”Someone intentionally left a baby, wrapped in a white cloth right in front of our gate. The baby cried for over 30 minutes, and it stopped crying. “A guy in black, hiding behind our wall, crawled to hit the baby again to cry. When they realized no one was coming out to check on the baby, he crawled to carry it off the road and few minutes later a taxi came and they went away”, the witness stated.

The eyewitness continued that, “We called the contact number of our neighbour, we asked if he had seen anything of that sort around his house and he informed us that, it’s a new strategy of armed robbers and that his elder brother was robbed last week using the same method”, advising everyone be conscious and keep their guard.
