The Nigerian Police Force (NPF), FCT Command, has arrested five suspects linked to the kidnapping of the Village Head of Dagachi Hamlet, Yuda Garba, along with five others in Ungwan Pawa Dnako Village, located along Igu Road.
Reports indicate that around 6:30 AM on March 11, 2025, a group of 15 armed assailants invaded the village the previous night, abducting the victims.
Intelligence sources revealed that a joint team of police officers, hunters, and vigilantes was promptly dispatched to the area, where they conducted a thorough search of the surrounding bushes.
Preliminary investigations indicated that the villagers had recently sold their farmlands, leading to the arrival of suspicious individuals believed to be Fulani settlers in the area.
As part of the ongoing operations, five suspects, identified as Abdullahi Idris, Tambaya Idris, Haruna Tukur, Umar U. Haruna, and Nasiru Haruna, have been apprehended in connection with the crime.
Meanwhile, efforts to rescue the kidnapped victims and track down the remaining suspects are being intensified.
