Gunmen on Sunday abducted two landlords at the Federal Capital Territory. They were kidnapped in the Asokoro area of FCT.
The armed men during the operation reportedly pointed a gun at one of the landlords in the area whom they used to gain access to the first victim.
A resident of the area who simply identified himself as James said that the second victim was making his way into his house when he was kidnapped by the armed men.
He said, “It happened around 11pm on Sunday. Because of the heat, one of the landlords slept outside. They saw him and pointed a gun to his head. They asked him to take them to his house, and he showed them but they were not satisfied with the kind of house he lives in.
“There were other big houses next to his house. So, they went with him and asked him to knock on the gate of one of the houses. When he knocked, as a well-known neighbour, the gate was opened for him. That was how they accessed the man’s house and kidnapped him.
“The second landlord had issues with his car and came home with a motorcycle. He was about to enter his house when they attacked him and whisked him away.”
