On Friday morning, bandits killed a pastor’s son in Karimbu-Kahugu community in Kaduna State’s Lere Local Government Area and abducted four other family members, including the pastor’s wife.
According to Peter Mukaddas, vice chairman of the Kahugu National Development Association in Lere Local Government Area, the bandits broke into the neighborhood early on Friday morning, attacked the pastor’s home right away, and then left.
He claimed that the bandits kidnapped the pastor’s wife and three other people from the house after shooting the pastor’s son when he resisted them.

Mukaddas pleaded with the state government to step in and free the kidnapped people safely. We are fervently asking God to change their hearts so they will have the insight to let them go, he said.
At the time this report was filled out, there was still no communication between the bandits and the victims’ families.
In the meantime, DSC Mohammed Jalige, the public relations officer for the Kaduna State Police Command, did not return his calls or reply to texts sent to him.
