In a tragic turn of events, the names of the villagers kidnapped during a brutal attack on the Dogon Noma-Unguwan Gamo Community in Maro ward, Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State have been revealed. The community was shaken to its core when suspected bandits descended upon them at 5:30 am on a Saturday morning, unleashing chaos and terror with their indiscriminate shooting.
Among the victims was Jibrin Dauda, who managed to escape with injuries and is currently receiving medical treatment at a hospital in Kajuru. The gravity of the situation was further confirmed by Mr. Stephen Maikori, the Overseer of Kufana District, who reported the incident to Agon Kufana. He stated, “This is to report to you that in the early hours of today, Saturday 16/3/2024, around 6:00 am, bandits invaded the community in large numbers and kidnapped fourteen (14) persons while one person sustained injuries.”
The kidnapped victims have been identified as Bulus Dandaura, Murna Bulus, Donald Bulus, Labari Audu, Zainabu Dauda, Dorcas Titus, Jummai Garba, Felicia Wanzami, Ruth Thomas, Esther Oliver, Comfort Babangida, Mrs. Yakubu Pama, Abaza Monday, and Christy Samuel. The community is reeling from the shock and uncertainty of their whereabouts.
Despite efforts to reach out to the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, ASP Mansir Hassan, for confirmation, there has been no response. The situation remains dire as the community grapples with the aftermath of this heinous act of violence.
Our hearts go out to the victims and their families as they endure this harrowing ordeal. We stand in solidarity with the community of Dogon Noma-Unguwan Gamo as they navigate through this dark chapter, hoping for the safe return of the kidnapped individuals.
Let us come together to condemn such acts of brutality and work towards a safer, more peaceful future for all communities affected by senseless violence. #JusticeForKaduna #EndBanditryNow
