In the Mararaban Rido community of Kaduna State, bandits have kidnapped a woman and her three children, tragically taking a life from the local community. The police in Kaduna have yet to respond to this incident, but according to locals, the armed bandits, wielding advanced weaponry, overwhelmed the local vigilantes. They forcibly entered the family’s home, abducting the mother and her three children. Fortunately, the husband was not present when the criminals attacked their residence around 8:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Regrettably, one person, a younger brother of the woman’s husband, lost his life during the attack. This has left the entire Anguwan Musa area of Mararaban Rido in a state of fear and uncertainty.
The bandits arrived heavily armed, firing shots for approximately half an hour to intimidate the community members. Despite the efforts of the local vigilantes, they couldn’t prevent the abduction.
This incident has rekindled fear and confusion among the residents, as kidnappers have once again struck their area. They are urgently appealing to security agencies to intervene and deploy their forces to protect their community. The bandits are operating in organized groups and have been a recurring threat in recent times.
