PRNigeria gathered that the journalist who covers the business beat was kidnapped together with a child of his neighbour, at an isolated cum hilly Byzahin community, a suburb of the nation’s capital city, between Kubwa and Bwari axis in Abuja.

A security source told PRNigeria that the unknown gunmen gained access to the resident by jumping his fence after firing several gunshots in the air.

“The gunmen broke into the room through the window before whisking their victims away in the difficult terrain.

“The FCT Police Commissioner, Mr. Bala Ciroma and his men, have already visited the community for an on-the-spot preliminary investigation into the incident,” the source added.
