Bandits kidnap two brothers in Kaduna.

Two brothers who fled their hometown of Ikara after their father was kidnapped and relocated to Zaria in Kaduna State were kidnapped as well.

The robbers reportedly raided Wusasa region in Zaria Local Government region of the state at 9 p.m. on Friday and kidnapped a health worker and his brother, Yushau Peter and Joshua Peter.

Although the state Police Command had not to respond to the incident as of press time, Isiyaku Ibrahim, the village head of Wusasa, verified the incident and voiced concern that “kidnappers have so frequently made our area their target of attacks and have abducted many of our people.”

“Wusasa settlement, located outside the ancient city of Zazzau, has recently been the target of a series of attacks.” An army officer and a vigilante member were just killed.

“This is the same area where a professor and Wazirin Wusasa were killed, and his son was kidnapped and held captive for nearly a month.”

“The abducted victims, Yushau and Joshua, are indigenes of the state’s Ikara Local Government Area, who recently fled for their lives after bandits attacked their residents and kidnapped their aged father, Mr Peter.”
