Scores of residents of Keke area of New Millennium City, Kaduna State have been kidnapped by bandits.

The armed bandits were said to have attacked the area on Monday night during heavy rain.

A resident in the area disclosed that the bandits arrived around 9pm and started kidnapping people from their houses.

It was gathered that some residents who were returning from markets and places of works walked into the hands of the gunmen.

Men of the Millennium City Police Division were said to have arrived the area to ascertain the number people kidnapped.

“The kidnappers came around 9:00pm during that rain. So, people were not alerted early enough, because the rain was heavy. They kidnapped many people. Most of the people kidnapped were just returning home during the attack and they just ran into the bandits,” a resident said.
