She said the kidnappers who came on vehicles and motorcycles operated for almost two hours without the intervention of security personnel.
She therefore called on the security agencies to investigate the issue and search for the whereabouts of her daughter.
The woman said she had not received any information on her daughter from the kidnappers.
The Kaduna Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Muhammed Jalige, had not picked the calls from our reporter at the time of filing this report.
