Nine months after kidnappers invaded El-Rufai Estate in Kuchiko Resettlement Development Area (KRDA) of Bwari Area Council of Abuja, and abducted a resident, they returned in the early hours of Monday.
During the attack, the gunmen, numbering 16, succeeded in abducting a resident.
It was learnt that they gained entrance into the estate through the space between the main gate and barb wire.
A source disclosed that the attackers visited two houses, but only succeeded in one, due to the timely arrival of the military.
