Teetee777: How my family and I narrowly escaped being kidnapped by bandits
I have witnessed and experienced many bandits attacking on the roads, market etc that involved me alone but this time, it wanted to involve my family.
Link below was how I kidnapped along Abuja -Kaduna road https://www.nairaland.com/7029895/terrorist-attacked-thurday-10th-march
On the 18th of November, 2025, my family and I narrowly escaped being kidnapped by bandits at our residence in Zamfara State.
At the time, my family lived in Zamfara while I managed my business in Kano. Because of this, I traveled from Kano to Zamfara about twice every month to check on my family and spend time with them.
We had been searching for a new apartment after our landlord sold the house we were living in and gave us notice to vacate. Finding accommodation in Zamfara was extremely difficult because of the insecurity caused by bandit attacks in many villages. As a result, many families had relocated from rural communities to the state capital for safety, making houses scarce and expensive.
I instructed my family to look for a house within the city. Eventually, they found a three-bedroom apartment in Tsauni, along the Sokoto bypass. Since I was in Kano at the time, my wife showed me the apartment through a video call. I advised her to ask people around about the security of the area before we made any payment.
She told me that some of her colleagues lived in that neighborhood, so I personally called one of them to confirm if the environment was safe. I was told that the area was peaceful and that the apartment was even located close to a police station. After making my inquiries, I transferred the payment for the apartment to the agent.
I then told my wife to begin preparations for moving into the new apartment, and I promised to travel to Zamfara when they were ready to move in.
On the day my family planned to move, I arrived early in the morning from Kano to inspect the house myself. When I got there, I immediately felt uncomfortable with the environment. From my years of traveling across Northern Nigeria and my understanding of how bandits operate, something about the area did not sit well with me. Unfortunately, we had already paid for the apartment and moved in.
Initially, I intended to stay with my family for only three days before returning to Kano. However, I kept feeling uneasy. Something deep inside me urged me to stay longer. After one week, I still did not feel at peace, and again I felt strongly that I should remain with my family for another week.
Then came the day that changed everything.
On the 18th of November, 2025, all my children had gone to school, and my wife had gone to work. I was alone at home when two men arrived and knocked on our gate.
I went outside to meet them. They claimed they were looking for the person who had previously lived in the house. I told them that I was a new tenant and did not know the former occupant. I advised them to contact the landlord instead.
The moment they left, I became deeply suspicious. Something in my mind immediately warned me that we should not sleep in that house that night.
I called my wife and told her that the family would not spend the night there. She asked what had happened, and I explained my encounter with the two men. Although she did not fully understand my fears, I had already made up my mind.
I contacted a friend of mine who had extra rooms in his compound and informed him that my family would stay at his place that night.
I also instructed my son to arrange for a vehicle that could help us move our belongings because I had decided that we would no longer continue living in that house.
By around 2 p.m., when my wife and children returned home from work and school, we began gathering our belongings in the compound while waiting for the vehicle to arrive.
At about 6 p.m., we called the driver, and he told us he was on his way. We waited until sunset and later went to the mosque for the Maghrib prayer around 7 p.m., but the driver still had not arrived.
After the prayer, we called him again, and this time he told us he would no longer be able to come until the following morning.
As we walked back from the mosque, I noticed several unfamiliar faces around the area. My fear increased immediately. I quickly gathered my children and told them we would not sleep in the house that night.
When we got home, I informed my wife that the driver would not come until morning. Since we could not move our belongings immediately, I decided to move the family out quietly without attracting attention.
I escorted two people at a time from the house to the main road, then returned for the others. I repeated this process until I had safely taken every member of my family, including my wife and children, to the roadside.
After escorting everyone out, I returned to the house alone because I did not want anyone in the neighborhood to suspect that we were leaving out of fear.
I stayed inside for about ten more minutes before quietly locking the gate and walking to join my family at the main road. It was around 8 p.m.
Less than ten minutes after we gathered there, one of my son’s friends, who lived in the second house nearby, called him and asked where we were.
When my son told him that we were no longer at home, the boy said that armed bandits had just invaded our house.
According to him, three armed men had jumped over our fence and entered the compound. When residents in the area noticed them, people immediately ran toward the nearby police station for safety.
After the bandits entered our compound and discovered that our belongings had already been packed together, they apparently realized something was wrong and jumped back over the fence.
On their way out, they kidnapped some people they encountered nearby.
The next morning, after daybreak, I returned to the house and then went straight to the police station to report the incident. I also informed the police that they should contact the landlord because I no longer wanted the apartment and wanted my money refunded. We had lived in the house for only two weeks.
That was how my family and I narrowly escaped being kidnapped by bandits that night and God saved us.
Lessons I Learned
1. Avoid living in isolated areas, especially places surrounded by empty plots, construction sites, or uncompleted buildings. Such locations can provide hiding places and easy access for criminals.
2. Never ignore danger signs or delay moving when you feel unsafe. Quick decisions can save lives.
3. Criminals often rely on information from people within or around a community. Residents should stay alert and be cautious about suspicious activities or unusual interest in their homes and movements.
4. Whenever you notice unfamiliar or suspicious people repeatedly appearing around your neighborhood, report it immediately to the police or local security authorities.
We will continue to pray for our security personnel because the situation of insecurity in Nigeria is beyond what anyone can predict when it will end. Thank God for safety, I don't play with my instincts. I follow it straight up 📌💯. |
