A gang of kidnappers have abducted the deputy chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kaduna State, Shu’abu Idris Lauje.
It was gathered that Lauje kidnapped alongside his daughter at their home on Wednesday.
The spokesperson of the Kaduna state police command, ASP Mohammed Jalige, could not be reached for confirmation at the time of filing this report.
“The APC vice Chairman was kidnapped along with his Daughter at around 1:30 am this morning in his house at Kwanar Zango along Zaria-Kaduna Express.” an eyewitness familiar with the incident said.
Insecurity in the North has been heightened in recent times as Kidnappings and Banditry occur almost on a daily basis. On Thursday, President Muhammadu Buhari had a closed-door meeting with Security chiefs to deliberate on strategies to tackle the menace.
