Armed criminals tried to kidnap a local businessman with his two children in Shanono Saturday night. They entered the town at 2:20 a.m. carrying guns and weapons. Neighbors heard shots near the family home during the attempted abduction. The targets escaped, but one person suffered injuries and needed hospital care. Security teams have gone to the area following the attack.
This happened less than ten days after gunmen attacked Faruruwa town in the same region. Those attackers killed two people and took another person. Hon. Abubakar Barau, who leads Shanono Local Government Area, confirmed the latest incident through his spokesman, Comrade Ammar Shanono. Officials ask people to stay alert and help police catch those responsible. The investigation continues as authorities work to make the area safe again.
