According to reports, the unidentified gunmen stormed the community around 9pm and shot sporadically in the air to scare people away before abducting Madam Rebecca Igbe who was in a shop opposite her house. The 80-year old begged not to be taken away, but they ignored her and whisked her away. Residents say it’s the second time this year that kidnappers will be visiting the elderly woman.
