By Ben Ogbemudia
Abuja is gradually turning into something else as kidnappers are now having a free day, especially in Kwali axes when Abdullahi Benda, his 23 year -old son, Jibrin Abdullahi was abducted at Yangoji village in the early hours of Friday.

A resident of the area said that the kidnappers positioned themselves at strategic places, scaled the fence of the victim’s house.

“In fact, one of the kidnappers was even standing at a window at the back of my room shooting into the air, because it is a fence that separates us from the victim.”

“The other members of the gang jumped over the fence and entered the house,” he said.

He said the kidnappers forcefully destroyed the doors and went into the room and whisked away from the man and one of his sons at gunpoint.
