Bandits invaded a home in the Ushafa Community in the Bwari Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Thursday night, August 29, and fatally shot a man, before kidnapping his wife and children.
A police source confirmed the incident to DailyTrust but did not go into details.
Ushafa is one of the communities that have come under attack in the ongoing widespread insecurity in Nigeria.
The development comes after SBM Intelligence, an Africa-focused market/security intel gathering consulting firm, said Nigerians paid N1.048 billion as ransom to kidnappers between July 2023 and June 2024.
