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.

out of the 130 million Nigerian push into poverty by this administration economic policy according to world bank, not all will believe things will get better or Gods time is the best, the politicians may think there are untouchable because of the security men there move around with, but in no distant time the insecurity will reach them too, such high number of poor citizen should give any reasonable government serious concern, but there are more concern about governors who are decamping to APC and how to win 2027 election in 2025 this are the kind of people some people refer to as their leaders.

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

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

I wonder why Southern Nigeria can not Unite and seek for break away from Northern Nigeria, after then, Southern Nigeria can separate on their own. Or at least, practice total restructuring so that north can bear their own cost. They will stop to produce kids.

These recent cases of armed robbery are quite alarming but, the NPF are expected to rise to the occasion and have these criminal gangs smashed sooner than later.

Abuja is a very large metropolis and these isolated cases are not enough to discredit all the efforts and achievements taking place there.

Some people are already "break-dancing" over these incidents just to get at Mr President and the FCT Minister.

Why are these enemies of society like this?

When good things happen, they sneer!

When bad things happen, they go to town dancing wildly like lunatics.

Security is a collective responsibility of all well-meaning citizens and not solely that of Tinubu or Wike.

However, this is not to say that more doesn't need to be done, as the primary responsibility of any government is the protection of lives and property.

Wike, the IGP and others must redouble their efforts in combating these waves of crime and criminal activities in the FCT.

It's a task that is achievable!

Politicians are destroying 200 million Nigerians for their personal gains.

Is that less unsettling because you don’t see videos of the direct impact, which includes rising crime from jobless and underpaid people?

There are tens of millions of people living these three districts and all the police personnel combined are not even up to 500.

Our president says that you are so weird for blaming the north for everything when you have not seen cows 🐄.

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country




Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

There is only one major access road that the robbers could have passed; Nyanyan-Jikwoyi-Kurudu-Orozo road. There is a police checkpoint at gida mangoro just in front of Loyola Jesuit. There is another police checkpoint at kurudu in front of Kurudu police station. There is another one in Jikwoyi very close to the Jikwoyi police station. And then there is another one in front of Fidelity bank at CBN junction. The armed robbers shouldn’t be able to escape all of them.

PANDORA PAPERS: Buhari visited Tinubu in corruption-tainted London villa acquired by Oyetola

Governor Oyetola, a relative of Mr Tinubu, may have sabotaged his own country by buying the exotic property as Nigeria made to seize it.

ByNicholas IbekweandTaiwo-Hassan Adebayo October 7, 2021 in Headline Stories, Pandora Papers Reading Time: 8 mins read

It was a meeting of two of Nigeria’s most influential politicians in London – President Muhammadu Buhari was visiting political kingmaker and senior member of his ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu.

In July, the presidency announced that Mr Buhari was heading to London for an education summit. The office also added that the president would also see his doctors for “medical check-up”.

Coincidentally, Mr Tinubu, who had travelled to London earlier, was also receiving treatment for an undisclosed ailment in the British capital. So, a perfect setting for both men to meet was created.

With increased tax burden on people for Tinubu’s August revenue target and $84 billion subsidy savings that has made petrol and life so unbearable, Nigeria shouldn’t be borrowing more than when PDP gave us cheap petrol, cheap food, high employment and GDP growth.

When you are able to understand the above APC abracadabra, then you will understand why the armed robbers escaped all the police presence you described.

Abuja is not safe anymore under tilimbu.
How can it be safe? When Tinubu and Ribadu are sitting there having bandits and terrorist doing meetings with council chairmen and state governors and he reinforces the bad behaviours with a corrupt, divisive , wasteful party and government, then caps it by freeing drug baron and baronesses, its chaos everywhere, and its all for political gains and ambitions.

However, Nigerians deserves it leaders cos of their myopic attitudes in handling Nigerian affairs and electing their leaders.
