The surge in bandit attacks heightens concerns in the region, occurring just a week after an alarming abduction of 61 people in the Buda community within the same local government area.

According to reports from a local youth leader, Sani Musa, the latest incident unfolded in the early hours of Saturday when a large group of bandits invaded the Dogon Noma community, firing shots sporadically before seizing fourteen residents. One person sustained injuries during the assault and is currently receiving medical treatment.

Among those abducted are Bulus Dandaura, Murna Bulus, Donald Bulus, Labari Audu, Zainabu Dauda, Dorcas Titus, Jummai Garba, Felicia Wanzami, Ruth Thomas, Esther Oliver, Comfort Babangida, Yakubu Pama, Abaza Monday, and Christy Samuel. The injured individual has been identified as Jibrin Dauda.

As of the time of reporting, the state police command had yet to confirm the latest abduction, leaving the community and families of the victims in an anxious state, awaiting any news of their loved ones.

This recent abduction highlights a disturbing trend in Kaduna State and surrounding areas, where communities face escalating threats from bandits and criminal gangs. The recurring incidents of kidnapping for ransom have instilled fear among residents, raising questions about the security apparatus’ capacity to protect citizens and secure the release of those taken captive.
