Gunmen have abducted officers of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Delta State, sparking concerns over rising insecurity in the are.

Reports indicate that the armed assailants ambushed the officers and their orderly near the agency’s state headquarters at around 8:00 pm as they were returning home from work.

The attackers, believed to have monitored the victims’ routine, intercepted them along the Isah-Ogwashi-Uku Road in Aniocha South Local Government Area.

Sources familiar with the incident suggested that the kidnappers may have received insider information to carry out the attack.

Efforts to obtain a comment from the NDLEA State Command’s spokesperson, Mr. John Kennedy, were unsuccessful, as he declined to speak on the matter.

This incident follows a troubling trend in Ogwashi-Uku, where five people have reportedly been kidnapped in the past 10 days. The recent wave of abductions has left residents in fear, with criminals allegedly adopting new strategies to elude law enforcement.
