Gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have killed a vigilante and r3ped two girls in Kaduma 3, a community near Asokoro Extension, in Abuja.
It was gathered that the gunmen invaded the community on Monday night, September 15, 2025, attacked houses and exchanged fire with local vigilantes.
The attack which lasted for over few hours was described as one of the most terrifying incidents in the community, as bullets and a grenade-like blast were heard by commuters.
Eyewitnesses who spoke with Nigerian Tribune said the attackers came from a nearby village called Kobi, adding that some people were injured.
One of the residents said two girls were r3ped while the vigilante identified as “Bako” was shot dead during the attack.
One of the residents who questioned why the particular house was targeted said residents had asked the landlord for security upgrades months earlier, requests they say, were not acted upon.
Residents said the police arrived later and calm returned only after officers deployed.
