365Daily – Some bandits have reportedly attacked Ungwan Gajere, Birnin Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, killing one person and kidnapping seven villagers.
Among those abducted by the bandits were women.
It was gathered that the bandits also carted away livestock.
A source said they made away with about 50 cows during the raid which lasted several hours on Saturday.
A source disclosed on Sunday that the bandits came in their large numbers on motorcycles – each carrying three bandits.
“They shot indiscriminately when they arrived around 2 pm yesterday,” he said, adding that “three women and four men were kidnapped by the bandits.”
The Kaduna state government and police authorities are yet to confirm the incident and all efforts to reach the Police Public Relations Officer, Mohammed Jalige, proved abortive.
