**Residents Block Abuja-Kaduna Highway as Bandits Attack Kaduna Community**

By Daniel Edu

Residents of Goningora in Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State blocked the Abuja-Kaduna highway in protest following an attack by armed bandits on their community. The bandits attacked Goningora on Wednesday night, resulting in at least two fatalities and the abduction of seven individuals. Infuriated by the incident, residents took to the streets, blocking the Abuja-Kaduna highway on Thursday morning. The protest caused significant traffic congestion, leaving numerous motorists and travelers stranded. This attack occurred just a week after soldiers killed a notorious bandit leader, Boderi Isyaku, and some of his fighters in the same Chikun LGA.
