JUST IN: Terrorists Abduct Commuters On Abuja- Kaduna Road 50 Days After Train Attack

Terrorists have reportedly abducted an unspecified number of the commuters along the Abuja-Kaduna road on Tuesday.

Reports stated that the presence of the assailants had led to a standstill on the highway.

A Facebook user, Hf Dauda MoiSoro posted, “Motorists are at standstill on the Abuja-Kaduna Highway.” He subsequently updated the information saying, “Many people just Kidnapped! Inna lillahi wa Inna ilaihin raji’un”.

Similarly, a counterterrorism expert @mobilisingniger also tweeted on Tuesday saying, “JUST IN: Reports confirmed that Bandits attacked commuters at Katari along Kaduna – Abuja expressway number of persons were Kidnapped as about 5-6 buses were empty. The security agencies are currently on ground”.

This incident occurred 50 days after terrorists abducted no fewer than 62 passengers from an inbound Kaduna-Abuja train after detonating an explosive on the railway track.

The kidnap also comes barely 24-hours after the Nigeria Railway Corporation announced resumption for May 23.
