Bandits Kidnap Bauchi Councillor And His Two Wives

Bandits have kidnapped a local councillor, Hon. Dan Musa Garin Kwairi, along with his two wives in Futuk community, Gwana District of Alkaleri Local Government Area of Bauchi State.

It was gathered that the incident happened late at night on Monday, when the attackers entered the councillor’s home and took the three victims to an unknown destination.

Security analyst Bakatsine, who shared details from local sources, said the gunmen appeared to have gone straight to the residence, suggesting they may have specifically targeted the family.

Witnesses also said the operation was carried out quickly before the assailants fled the area.

As of the time of filing this report, the Bauchi State Police Command had not issued any statement about the abduction.
