Kaduna : Unidentified gunmen, suspected to be bandits, abducted 19 people in the Mani community near a factory in Rido Ward, Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State, and at Danhonu II, Millennium City, Kaduna.


Advisory : The frequent kidnapping incidents call for increased security measures and better protection for media personnel, especially those working in high-risk areas. Implementing safety training and crisis response strategies can also aid in reducing the risk to individuals.
