Armed Robbers Raid 11 Compounds in Jikwoyi, Abuja, Before Dawn; Residents Report Gunshots and Assaults

ABUJA (FCT) — Tuesday, October 21, 2025: An armed gang of about a dozen men attacked multiple homes in Jikwoyi, a suburb near Karu, in the early hours of Tuesday, carting away cash, jewellery, and other valuables, The Bureau News learned on scene.

How the attack unfolded — Nigeria News Today

Residents said the attackers scaled perimeter fences and forced their way into apartments across eleven compounds, smashing doors and windows. The intruders, who addressed one another with names like “Area” and “Commander,” spoke in Hausa and Fulfulde, according to eyewitnesses.

Streets and families hit

Multiple homes around PGC Estate (five compounds reported)
Omachonu Isaac's Family
Households identified locally as Mummy & Daddy Tehila, Chief Sunny, and Mummy & Daddy King-David
Several adjacent compounds within the same neighbourhood cluster

“We couldn’t sleep all night,” a resident told The Bureau News on condition of anonymity. “There were sporadic gunshots, doors breaking, windows shattering, and people crying as they were slapped and beaten.”

Arrests and police response

Community sources said two suspects were apprehended during the chaos, though details remained sketchy. Attempts by The Bureau News to reach the Jikwoyi Police Division were unsuccessful as calls did not connect at press time.

Security concerns and immediate needs

The overnight raid has rattled middle-class estates in Jikwoyi, where residents are urging increased patrols, functioning streetlights, and rapid response coverage along access roads toward Karu. Community leaders also asked victims to document losses and seek medical care for trauma and injuries.

This video is very unsettling. How can some people choose to destroy others for their personal gain?

Wike claims his administration and that of Tinubu is the best ever in the history of the FCT.

Meanwhile Nyesom Wike and his social media laptop boys are downplaying this menace via churning of endless lies and propaganda

JASONjnr:
Why are you trying to politicize this?...You might even be the one paying those criminals to attack innocent people just so that you will rush to make this post.

So as Bukola Saraki was accused in futility of masterminding the Offa Kwara Robbery, you are also alleging Racoon masterminded this one to discredit a govt you once detest but now love because of political crumbs?

See where your granduer delusion has led you too? So is it today that criminality has been ravaging the FCT? You are not in this nation when Nyesom Wike downplayed all these treat of kidnapping and robbery as you lots were defending the indefensible? Meanwhile, this is you before now;

Na these hausa boys, they come in numbers to collect phone, laptop, tv , these guys can be arrested because those phones they collect can easily be tracked

Been hours and this isn't on the front page? What's happening?

The northern leaders should as matter of urgency tell their people to stop producing children en masse.

They should stop giving birth to children they know they cannot take care of.

These people doing okada, mai shara, shoemakers and all are about to overrun this country with crime.

Bandits — North
Terrorists — North
Arise TV staff killers and many armed robbers — North

These people are so weird that their normal is alien to the whole world.

If only they can visit the apartments of our politicians...

Then they will take in-security very seriously

I hope Tinubu have escaped from Aso Rock because it seems Tinubu no longer have control over our security, how can the whole country be ravaged by insecurity like this including Abuja the sit of power?


While Nyesome Wike is busy making noise with yeye road constructions he is using to loot his own money for his future Presidential ambition, APC have graduated to an ebola virus, na wa oh

May we never be a victim...

A very bad experience with high level of PTSD

Na for FCT oO. This is happening in the Federal Capital Territory, now imagine the fate of those in Benue! And some people are only concerned with their party winning elections.
Na only God dey protect His children for Nigeria sha.

Nigeria just becoming a dangerous place to live and feel safe

They are aware they will get presidential pardon

thewinning101:
Since the arrival of Osun state intelleshua Thiefunnubun, abuja and every state in Nigeria has been disorganized and unsafe.

What would remain for him to be presidiot over?

You can get a gun legally in Nigeria
It clearly means there was no push back and no police support came on time

because they know nobody has gun in tbe area.

I keep saying it.
Media never shows the people that guns protect.

Sad one!!!

But this was the reason I wrote sometime that police should be respected.
Now they are asking for patrols. Who would patrol if not these same policemen the citizens mock and even assault them in public. There may be some bad ones amongst them, but making public mockery of the police gives criminals the confidence to cause havoc.
Where is that woman who was assaulting policeman the other time? Can she also stand against this kind of criminals? People would hail her online b, but when real criminals come she will still be asking for the police to show up

The criminals who caused this should be made to face the full wrath of the law.


My Post does not supposed this criminal acts. It only emphasises the need to also encourage our Forcemen.

Wetin dey baffle me pass be say upon all the Barracks in and around the FCT, these guys still go away with their crimes

Our security agencies needs to step up their game seriously 😣

This is scary for people in Abj. What is wike and tinubu doing?

Capitol city oh

...where is wicked wike the DJ?
