Gunmen shoots APC Chieftain, abduct 5 in Abuja

Five residents of Yangoji in the Kwali area council of the Federal Capital Territory have reportedly been abducted by Kidnappers.

It was also said that a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Musa Majaga was shot.

A resident of Yangoji, simply identified as Abdullahi, said the incident happened on Monday, around 12:23 am when the kidnappers invaded the APC chieftain’s house in the area, according to a Daily Trust report.

“You know the kidnappers took advantage after they got information that vigilantes were short of cartridges. They then struck and abducted five people. We have not witnessed any attack by kidnappers in the past five months here in Yangoji,” a vigilante member said.

He said the APC chieftain, who was shot on the leg, had been taken to a private hospital at Gwagwalada for treatment.
