Eight seven people have been kidnapped after terrorists launched a fresh attack on Sunday night, at Kajuru-Station community in Kajuru Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
Confirming the incident, a member of the Kajuru-Station Youths, Harisu Dari said the terrorists also ransacked some shops and stole food items and other valuables.
He said they invaded the village around 10 pm.
The invasion of the village at 10 pm came barely two days after 15 women and a man were abducted in the Dogon-Noma community of the same local government.
Kajuru and Chikun LGs had in the past two weeks become the focus of abductions.
Harisu added that no contact has been established with the 87 natives kidnapped on Sunday night.
“As of the time I visited the community this morning, security operatives have not been drafted to help restore the confidence of the villagers.
“The villagers are traumatic with the sad development. The government needs to re-strategise in tackling these terrorists,” he said.
At the time of filing this report, the state Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Mansir Hassan is yet to respond to calls or a text message regarding the attack.
