Kidnappers invade Abuja Army Estate, abduct two persons
Kidnappers Thursday night invaded the Nigerian Post Army Estate in Abuja on and kidnapped two people.
The incident, which happened at about 10pm in the Phase 2 area of the estate, had kidnappers who came into the estates and took away the wife and one of the in-laws of one Barrister Cyril Adikwu.
This came after worrisome increase in the number of kidnapping and killing of victims over delay in payment of ransom.
According to Austine John, who is a neighbour to the latest victim, the kidnappers came in and started shooting while they invaded the barrister’s house and took away his wife and in-law while the barrister escaped.
“It all started at about 10:00 We suddenly started hearing gunshots, and immediately we knew something was wrong. I quickly went out to make sure my gate was well locked.
“Then we heard the gunshot in the barrister’s house, and then we alerted the estate’s management, who immediately swung into action.
