Bandits have abducted a pregnant woman at Lema community, Mando opposite Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) in Kaduna State.
Seven other persons were kidnapped when the bandits entered three houses around 1:00 am on Sunday.
A resident of the area, Mr Abubakar Umar, said they were all inside their houses when the bandits came and started shooting sporadically.
According to him: “They (bandits) came around 1:00am we were inside our houses, but we were all afraid to step out because of sporadic gunshots.
“They took away eight residents including a pregnant woman that came to visit her sick mother in the community. This is not the first time bandits would attack our community.”
Other residents called on the state government to come to their rescue.
The government is yet to comment on the incident, but Kaduna police spokesman DSP Mohammed Jalige said he would find out the details and get back to our reporter.
