Tension grips Abuja as bandits abduct seven people in night raid
Gunmen suspected to be bandits stormed Gidan‑Bijimi village in the Kawu ward of the Bwari Area Council, FCT, Abuja, on Wednesday night, kidnapping seven residents — six girls and a 16-year-old boy.
According to local sources, the armed attackers entered two houses at around 9:53 pm, opened fire, then abducted their victims. Panicked villagers reportedly fled into the bush for safety as neighbours tried but failed to confront the heavily armed group.
The attack has sent shockwaves through Gidan‑Bijimi and surrounding communities, many of whom have begun relocating in fear of further violence.
This incident comes just hours after the government declared a nationwide security emergency — underscoring the depth and urgency of Nigeria’s security crisis.

This is sad! I wonder when the Nigerian government will start taking swift steps in addressing issues like this.
