A woman and her son are the latest kidnap victims as they were abducted by armed men from Yolde-Pate, a community in Yola South Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
Sources said on Wednesday that the armed invaders stormed Yolde-Pate on the night of Monday and operated for 30 minutes without resistance. They succeeded in going off with the woman and her son.
A source who identified the victims as wife and son of a police officer, said, “They attacked the police officer’s house about 11.50 pm.”
The source who said the attacked house is situated close to the Federal Correctional Centre on the outer fringes of Yolde-Pate added that police operatives got to the scene after the attackers had gone.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the Adamawa State Police Command, DSP Suleiman Nguroje, would not give names nor confirm that those kidnapped were relations of a police officer.
The PPRO merely said the Commissioner of Police ordered that those kidnapped be secured, advising members of the public to always furnish the police with useful information.
