Terrorists numbering about ten in the early hours of Saturday invaded the Mashafa area of Mpape in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja and abducted no fewer than five residents during the operation that lasted about an hour.
Eyewitness accounts confirmed that the armed terrorists actually came for specific residents.
“They invaded our community with some deadly weapons around 1am and without wasting time went straight to their target’s homes. The sound of their guns was very loud, and it lasted about an hour. If you look at the kind of people they kidnapped, it showed they had their targets, and they one-by-one forced their way into their houses to pick them up. We have an Executive Officer of a logistics company, another, a manager of a big bakery, the other one is a Manger of an Oil dump company, and the last one works with a construction company.” our source revealed.
