Residents of Gonin-Gora in the troubled Chikun Local Government Area of Kaduna State on Thursday barricaded the Kaduna-Abuja Expressway protesting the abduction of an unspecified number of people in the area.

The residents stormed the highway protesting and urging the government to do something about the incessant attacks by bandits in the area.

According to eyewitnesses, kidnappers on Wednesday night through the early hours of Thursday had attacked the community, kidnapping unspecified numbers of the residents.

The incident which an eyewitness said happened from 11:00pm Wednesday through to 3:00am Thursday, forced residents to troop out to protest what they described as the audacity of the hoodlums in attacking the area.

“The hoodlums operated uninterrupted for over four hours without any security operatives in sight. This forced the residents to come out this morning to protest the incident.

“We were woken up by gunshots as the bandits entered the community shooting indiscriminately. Several residents were taken away to unknown destinations by the heavily armed attackers that invaded the area.

“They came in large numbers at about 11:00pm and operated for several hours. The residents, mostly youths have taken their destiny into their own hands and blocked the highway, forcing motorists to be stranded before the military came in shooting and thereafter dispersed them. It was a hectic day,” an eyewitness who’s also a resident of the area, told PUNCH Metro.

The Joint Task Force of security operatives were deployed to the scene to ease traffic flow.

Our correspondent gathered that some residents of the area had fled the community in fear that the bandits might possibly return.
