No fewer than 20 gun-wielding bandits attacked Chikakore community in Kubwa in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, on Sunday evening, kidnapping five residents including an entire family.
SaharaReporters learnt on Monday from police sources that the attackers invaded the Health Centre extension axis of Chikakore, around 11pm, forcing themselves into the houses of their victims, including a Southwesterner, Adesiyan Akinropo.
“They kidnapped the man (Akinropo), his wife and his son, their visitor. The bandits then took away another neighbour to make five persons.
“The bandits also injured a woman on the head, with the butt of the gun. She bled profusely and had to be rushed to the hospital. The police operatives from the Byzahin division later came to the area but the assailants had escaped,” the source disclosed to SaharaReporters.
SaharaReporters learnt that the police operatives and the community leaders had scheduled a meeting for Monday to discuss the incident.
One of the residents told SaharaReporters that the police operatives came an hour and a half after the incident had occurred.
“The bandits have resumed attacks in Chikakore. We need a police division here in this community. We have land and a five-bedroom apartment already built to accommodate the police but there is no deployment yet.
“In the Sunday incident, the policemen came one and a half hours after the bandits had escaped with their victims,” she lamented.
Efforts to reach the FCT police command for comment failed as its spokesperson, Josephine Adeh, did not answer calls from our reporter.
The Chikakore community, located just five kilometers from Kuchibuyi, experienced an incident in early January when bandits who had fled from Kankara Local Government Area in Katsina State detonated explosives in the area.
The tragic explosion at an Islamic school in Kuchibuyi in the Bwari Area Council of Abuja claimed at least two lives, according to the police.
