In a distressing incident, bandits have reportedly kidnapped two prominent women leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State.

The victims, identified as Hajiya Lami Awarware and her assistant, Hajiya Haulatu Aliyu, were said to have been in the area attending the inauguration ceremony of state governor Uba Sani when they were abducted.

Confirming the occurrence, the Chairman of Birnin Gwari Emirate Progressive Union, Ishaq Kasai, made a statement to the press on Wednesday. According to reports, the bandits whisked the women into the forest during the abduction, which took place on Tuesday.

In addition to the two women, Kasai revealed that the criminals also kidnapped a significant number of other individuals. At this time, the identities of these victims have not been released.
