Mistura Olasinde, a resident of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), and her two daughters Hauwa, and Fatima, got the shock of their lives when they were attacked in the nation’s capital, on Friday.
According to the victim’s husband, Surajudeen Olasinde, the incident happened around Galadima District of Abuja
Mr Olasinde, a staff member of the Nigerian Nuclear Regulatory Authority (NNRA), said his wife and children were driving home in their Toyota Highlander from Garki to Starwood Estate where they reside.
“Their abduction happened around 7 pm last Friday on their way from Garki. Immediately they reached Kabusa Garden Estate at the spot where the road was terribly bad, the kidnappers came out from the nearby bush and attacked them.”
“They started shooting to scare people away before they marched them into the bush,” he said.
On how his wife and daughters were faring, he said besides the injuries sustained, the psychological trauma was nothing to write home about.
He said they were taken to a hospital for medicare.
Mr Olasinde, who felt disheartened about the whole scenario, called on President Bola Tinubu and the Minister of FCT, Nyesom Wike, to come to their rescue.
Also speaking, the Chairman of Residents of Starwood Estate, Kayode Adedoyin, enumerated several kidnap cases that had taken place in the surroundings.
He called on the FCT minister to do all within his power to make their lives more secure.
When NAN called the DPO of Galadimawa, Mr Cole, on the phone about the incident, he said he had no permission to speak with the media.
He directed the reporter to talk to the FCT Police PRO, Josephine Adeh.
And when Ms Adeh was called on the phone, she said she was unaware of the abduction.
She, however, promised to get back to NAN as soon as she was briefed about the incident but she had yet to do that at the time of filing the report.
