Some unidentified gun-wielding men are reported to have attacked a community in Kuje Area Council in Abuja, the Capital of Nigeria, and kidnap not less than 15 persons.
According to reports, the gunmen stormed the community at about 6 pm, when people were said to be returning home from a congratulatory visit to the new Education Secretary of the Council, Mr. Yunusa Zakari.
This incident was confirmed by the Spokesperson for the FCT Police Command, Maltid Mari, who also hinted that a rescue effort was being carrying out at the moment.
The attackers, during their operation, were said to have hijacked their bus and forced all occupants down before whisking them to an unknown destination.
