Bandits abduct businessman and his two daughters in Niger state

Gunmen suspected to be bandits have raided Zhidi, a community neighbouring Dei-Dei town in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) but located in Tafa Local Government Area of Niger State.

According to daily trust, the attackers abducted a businessman, Muhammad Shuaibu, along with his two daughters, a 200-level university student and her younger sister.

A member of the family told the publication that the assailants broke into the victim’s home around 12am on Friday, October 2, through the backyard door after destroying a burglar-proof padlock.

“They did the same thing in the room where the wife of the family head was sleeping. She woke up suddenly to see them inside her room, so she quickly ran toward her husband’s room,” the source recounted.

“They summoned all the family members to the sitting room, threatening to take all of them. But the wife knelt down and kept pleading with them to spare her baby. That made them spare her and the baby.”

According to the source, the attackers seized the mobile phones of the man and his wife and also demanded foodstuffs, which were not available in the house.

He said the police outpost in the area has only a few personnel, and efforts to get a response from the Dei-Dei Division did not yield any result, as, according to him, they always insist that they are under the FCT command, while the area falls within Niger State.

It was further learnt that no communication had been established between the kidnappers and the victims’ relatives as of Monday afternoon when our reporter visited the residence.
