Nine residents, including two children, in Lokogoma community in Gadabuke District in Toto Local Government Area of Nasarawa State have been abducted by armed bandits.

The criminal elements are demanding N50million as ransom for their release.

Bandits invaded the community last Friday and killed a primary school teacher, Yusuf Mohammed, abducted two of his daughters and seven other villagers.

A relation of the deceased teacher, Ibrahim Aliyu, who confirmed the latest development to the Daily Trust on Wednesday, said the leader of the gunmen called on Tuesday at about 12pm through one of the victims’ phones to make the demand.

“Even when the man who was negotiating with the kidnappers told them that the man who was supposed to source the ransom was the one they killed. The leader of the kidnappers said he didn’t care,” Aliyu said.
