One person has been reported killed, while 3 others have been abducted in a fresh attack in Funtua Area Council of Katsina state.

This has forced the residents of the affected area, to send a Save Our Soul, SOS, message to the police and relevant security agencies.

A source in the area who pleaded anonymity said that “kidnappers gained access into the neighborhood last night, killing one person, while a father whose two daughters were abducted” died of a heart attack.

The residents are therefore seeking the speedy completion of a police station under construction, in the area.

Though, Police spokesman, Gambo Isah, when contacted, promised to get back to ait. live, the fresh attack was coming days after a mastermind of the 344 abducted boys from the Government Science Secondary School Kankara, Auwalun Daudawa, in Zamfara State.
