Gunmen invaded Hilltop Phase 2 Extension of the Nigerian Army Post-Housing Estate on Thursday night, kidnapping a popular businesswoman.
Abuja City Journal gathered that heavily armed men entered the area around 9 pm, shooting sporadically to scare residents amidst the heavy presence of soldiers in the estate. The kidnappers went away with the woman through the hillside.
The kidnappers reportedly targeted the victim’s husband but narrowly missed him.
A source stated, “Yesterday at about 9 pm, some kidnappers entered this estate and kidnapped a woman at the Hilltop.
“The target was the husband, but they couldn’t get him as he was not around. Unfortunately, as the woman was driving into her compound, they got her.
“As her son started shouting, they too started shooting.
They went away with her through the hillside.
Soldiers have been deployed to trace them; hopefully, they will be apprehended. The CCTV in the house captured them.Start slideshow
