Along the Katsina/Jibia route in Katsina State, terrorists kidnapped an unknown number of travellers inside two vehicles on Wednesday evening.

According to sources, the event happened at 5 p.m. along a highway section in Kadobe village.

Gambo Isah, the spokesman for the Katsina State Police Command, confirmed the occurrence but insisted he should be given more time to determine the precise number of abducted people.

He said, ” Yes, it is true but give me time to find out the actual numbers of those kidnapped as not all the passengers were kidnapped.”

It was learnt that the terrorists arrived at the scene of the incident on no fewer than twenty motorcycles and stood in the middle of the road, shooting indiscriminately.
