Some gunmen suspected to be bandits have abducted the sister in-law and brother of the Commissioner for Youth and Sport Development in Sokoto state, Bashir Gorau.

Gorau broke the news of the abduction on his verified Facebook account on Wednesday.

The message read, ” Innalillahi wa Inna wa innalillahi Rajiuun!!!.

“It’s about 12:45am that, Bandits attacked our House in Gorau Town, Goronyo local government area and abducted wife of our elder brother Alhaji Lawali Gorau and one of our brother Hassan Manya.

“May God protect and return them to Us safely, Amin. In need of your prayers fellow Muslim.”

While speaking to our correspondent over the phone, the Commissioner said the bandits shot into the air when they stormed the house.

He said it could have been a targeted crime because apart from his sister in-law and brother, they didn’t take anybody in the village.

When asked if the kidnappers had contacted the family, he said, “We are still waiting for their call to know their demands.”

Banditry is one of the major challenges confronting the current administration.

President Muhammadu Buhari has repeatedly charged security agencies to check the high wave of crime but attacks have been on the rise.

God bless you, gunmen, Now you have our support in what you are doing now.
Target politicians and their relatives they are the ones that have made your life miserable'
don't target poor innocent people like you and us.

The whole of Nigeria will support you if you guys continue this way.
God bless Northern bandits and Northern gunmen

If police formation is attacked in the East it is IPOB or ESN but in the North it is gunmen.
Nonsense

It has become a normal routine in the north so we aren't shocked about it. Next news please!!!

Arewa1stson com and look at the kind fake news southerners just dey post to make Arewa (NW and NE geopolitical region) to look bad.

Ransom on the way.

Why not break into the house of the bandits and retrieve your family members or as a commissioner or the government in power, should the breaking in be one sided?

The Corporate Affairs Commission and the ministry of trade and investment should issue these groups a certificate of incorporation and and that of trademark respectively.

And properly delineate their spheres of operation and influence.

Then the FIRS and the SBIRs should collect federal and state taxes from them and use the proceeds to buy arms for the rest of us who don't have one yet!

Not again

Abduction is the 2021 oil well.

They are now going for the political class. Rain doesn't fall on a single roof. hahahaha. Blues all the way tomorrow. Liverpool go walk alone...

Only fellow criminals will support bandits regardless of their victims identity. It is funny how the people who shouts terrorist the most are their greatest fans.
