The Journalist, Amra Ahmed Diska, is the News Editor with Adamawa State Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), located in Mbamba community in Yola.
Earlier, insider sources stated that the gunmen stormed the resident of the victim in the wile hours of Tuesday and forcefully took her away, leaving behind her six-month-old baby.
