 Gunmen Abduct 5 In Abuja, Shoot APC Chieftain


Kidnappers have reportedly abducted five residents of Yangoji in the Kwali area council of the Federal Capital Territory, shooting a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Musa Majaga.


A resident of Yangoji simply identified as Abdullahi, said the incident happened on Monday, around 12:23 am when the kidnappers invaded the APC chieftain’s house.


He said the kidnappers destroyed the burglary windows of the Majaga’s house, entered the room and shot him. They were said to have abducted two of his children.


“After they had picked two of his children, they went into another apartment and abducted three other neighbours,” he said.


A vigilante member, who spoke to our reporter during a visit to the area on Monday, said the kidnappers took advantage of lack of cartridges in vigilantes’ guns.


“You know the kidnappers took advantage after they got information that vigilantes were short of cartridges. They then struck and abducted five people. We have not witnessed any attack by kidnappers in the past five months here in Yangoji,” he said.


He said the APC chieftain, who was shot on the leg, had been taken to a private hospital at Gwagwalada for treatment.


The spokesman of the FCT Police Command, SP Adeh Josephine, asked our reporter to give her time to find out about the incident. She was yet to get back as of the time of filing this report.
