 GUNMEN SEIZE BENUE COMMERCIAL BUS, KILL DRIVER & KIDNAP ALL PASSENGERS ON OGOBIA-ADOKA ROAD. 



Suspected kidnappers struck again in Benue State, hijacking a fully loaded commercial vehicle along the Ogobia–Adoka road and killing its driver before whisking all passengers into the bush.


The attack, which occurred over the weekend in Otukpo Local Government Area, has sent fresh shockwaves through nearby communities. According to local sources, the gunmen ambushed the vehicle, forced it off the road, and fatally shot the driver, identified as Arrow of God from Aila community in Agatu LGA, before seizing the passengers.


This latest incident adds to growing concerns about rising insecurity on the Ogobia–Adoka corridor. Less than three weeks ago, the same route witnessed another violent episode when suspected robbers attacked two police officers Inspector Amos Okoh and Inspector Joseph Adowebo during a routine patrol.


Residents say fear now hangs over the area as calls grow louder for urgent security reinforcement.
