A couple identified as Yohana Isheme and his wife, Naomi Yohanna has been reportedly abducted on Saturday around 1:am at Ukya Sabo community in Toto local government area of Nasarawa state.
An eyewitness identified as Samuel, said the kidnappers invaded the community in large numbers with sophisticated weapons, positioned themselves at strategic places within the community before other gangs scaled the fence of the victims’ house.
It was gathered that they shot sporadically in the air to scare neighbours as they were leading their victims out of the community into the bush.
Samuel said; “They forced the back door after they scaled the fence and went straight into the man’s bedroom to whisk him away alongside his wife at gunpoint.”
It was learnt that Isheme is a staff with the health department in Toto local government area, while his wife is a class teacher at Local Education Authority (LEA) primary school, Tika in the area.
Mr Gabriel Hagai, the head of information unit of Toto local government area confirmed the kidnap incident.
