Unknown gunmen on Saturday night abducted the mother and
sister of Mr Kassim Mohammed-Kassim, member representing (APC) Akwanga South
constituency at the Nasarawa state house of assembly.
The Police spokesman in the state, DSP Kennedy Idirisu
confirmed the abduction on Sunday in Lafia.
According to Idirisu, the gunmen in their numbers, stormed
the residence of the lawmaker at Moroa in Akwanga at about 8 pm and shot
sporadically before whisking the two women away.
He said that the police was collaborating with the vigilante
group in the area to locate the victims.
“As we speak, our men are already combing the areas in
search of the victims and to apprehend the perpetrators,” Idirisu said.
He, however, appealed to members of the public to assist the
police with useful information that could lead to the rescue of the women.
Meanwhile, a family source who preferred anonymity said the
abductors have contacted the family and demanded a ransom of N30 million.
