Three residents of the Nigerian Army Housing Estate in the Kurudu area of Abuja, are said to have been kidnapped.
Their abduction took place on Thursday night when kidnappers stormed the estate and abducted three residents, including the wife and an in-law of a lawyer, Cyril Adikwu.
Kurudu is located in the Abuja Municipal Area Council.
Report said the Estate is owned by the Nigerian Army Post Housing Department under the Nigerian Army Welfare Holdings Limited, and it is being co-managed with the Nigerian Army Housing Estate Residents Association.
Among its residents are serving and retired military personnel, and some civilians.
“The kidnappers attacked the estate around 9pm on Thursday. We thought only two people were abducted, but the estate management later confirmed that the abducted persons were three. The victims are a lawyer’s wife and his in-law, and one other person, who has yet to be named. The attack was shocking because we felt that we were safe here,” an unnamed resident of the estate told Punchng.
