Armed bandits have kidnapped three children of the Village Head of Gamalegi community in Lafiagi Local Government Area of Kwara State.
Security analyst Zagazola Makama revealed the incident in a post on X on Thursday.
According to Makama, the attack happened around 2:30 a.m. when the assailants invaded the community, shooting into the air to scare residents.
“They then broke into the home of the Village Head, Alhaji Hassan, and took away his children, 17-year-old Sheshi Alhassan, 15-year-old Aliyu Alhassan, and 14-year-old Ibrahim Alhassan.
“Vigilantes, soldiers, police officers, and local hunters quickly mobilised and began a bush-combing operation to rescue the children and capture the kidnappers,” Makama added.
The search is still ongoing at the time of filing this report.
