Bandits Kidnap Mother, Three Children in Zaria

A Clinical Psychologist of the Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital, Mrs Jummai Suleiman, has been abducted by bandits in Kaduna State.

It was gathered that she was abducted with her three children, Abdullateef, Amina and Abdulrahman by 9 pm on Saturday in Zaria.

Narrating the horrible incident, the former Senator representing Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Shehu Sani revealed that this is the reality many people have been forced to live with.

Yet, for some reason, the Presidency is not addressing the killings, kidnapping done by these terrorists code-named ‘bandits’ as it should be.

In yet another text, President Muhammadu Buhari, through his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu demands crushing of bandits.
