Eye witnesses have recounted how the kidnap saga that happened over the weekend in Sagwari Layout, Dutse Alhaji and Bwari, all in Abuja happened and what families lost.
They said that all families lost their firstborns.
Said one witness: “The terrorists were asking for N60 million for each child they took away and when the families were not forthcoming with the monies, they killed all the firstborns and dumped their bodies in the forest yesterday”.
On how the victims were kidnapped, the source said one of the fathers of the families told him they came in military and police uniforms at about 7pm.
“They knocked on doors and gates. Once you opened the door, they took away everyone they saw and came in contact with. “
Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Barrister Nyesom Wike has, however, assured residents of the nation’s capital, especially residents of Bwari Area Council that the FCT Administration would make the territory hotter for bandits and terrorists.
Wike, who stated this during a town hall meeting in Bwari on today, maintained that the security agencies will make Bwari Area Council and FCT totally unconducive for criminal activities.
He noted that the informants of the bandits who are living amongst the people will soon be fished out.
Meanwhile, friends and relatives of one of the kidnapped families are soliciting for public assistance to enable them raise the ransom demanded by the kidnappers.
They are asking the good people of Nigeria to quickly come to their assistance to avoid further deaths of their loved ones.
