The activities of daring bandits in Bwari, Ushafa, and other villages in Bwari Area Council, Abuja have created a tense atmosphere for residents. These bandits have been carrying out a series of attacks, killing and kidnapping people in the area. In one incident, seven family members were abducted, and a man was shot dead during a confrontation with the police.
The bandits have also targeted other communities, leading to further abductions and injuries. As a result, some residents have chosen to leave their homes to protect themselves from the ongoing violence. This alarming situation highlights the urgent need for increased security measures in the region.
Armed men have attacked communities near Veritas University in the Bwari area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in Nigeria, kidnapping residents. The university was closed on July 8, 2022, after a series of attacks in the area, including an ambush that resulted in the deaths of eight soldiers.
The General Hospital in Bwari has also been partially shut down due to increased bandit attacks, with doctors and workers afraid of being kidnapped. Ushafa village, also located in the Bwari Area Council, has experienced several attacks by terrorists as well. There are reports of residents being abducted near Jordan FM and of bandits being sighted near the LEA Primary School.
These incidents have sparked fear and anxiety among the residents of Clinton Village. The situation is concerning, with the bandits studying their victims and planning targeted attacks based on their financial status and place of work. The FCT Police Command has not confirmed the reports as of yet.
According to a member of the vigilante group in the village, bandits were spotted by farmers before the attack on Zuma 1 in Bwari. The villagers are concerned about another attack in Ushafa and are requesting more help from the police and soldiers.
The FCT Police Public Relations Officer urged residents to stop spreading unverified information. The Commissioner of Police has visited communities in the region and taken proactive measures, but concerns about perceived inactivity remain.
