Kidnappers who abducted the father of the Vice Chairman of Kwali Area Council of the FCT, Alhaji Mohammed Yakubu, a pregnant woman and five others have demanded N30m ransom.
WBN reported that the gunmen kidnapped the victims in Yewuti community in the early hours of Saturday, November 19, 2023, and killed one Hussaini Kure, during the attack.
Recall that Yewuti, the hometown of a former Vice Chairman of Kwali, Alhaji Zubairu Jibrin Yewuti, came under attack by kidnappers on April 22, 2023, and 29 villagers were abducted.
Confirming the latest incident to the Daily Trust, a resident, Ibrahim Danjuma, said that around 12am the gunmen in their large numbers wielding AK-47 rifles invaded three houses, including the house of the father of the vice chairman, Suleiman Idris, and whisked him away alongside six other villagers.

“Unfortunately, one of the villagers, Hussaini Kure, who attempted to escape was shot dead by the gunmen,” he added.

He appealed to authorities of the council to come to the aid of his subjects through liaising with relevant security agents on how to rescue the abducted victims.
