A gallant motorist, Usamn Yusuf-Abubakar, reportedly engaged his abductor in fisticuffs, setting dozens of other captives free along Kaduna-Birnin Gwari road.

Narrating the incident, one of the freed victims, name withheld, said Mr Yusuf-Abubakar fought the kidnapper to a pulp and disarmed him using a stone.



According to the victim, Mr Yusuf-Abubakar, after freeing the victims from the kidnappers, took away their gun and moved out of the forest.

The victim narrated: “We were blocked, robbed and kidnapped along Kaduna-Birnin Gwari road.

“We were led into the forest by one kidnapper holding AK47 riffle while others stayed back to cart away our properties.

“In my car alone, the kidnappers took over N400,000, laptop, handsets, etc.



“On our way into the forest, Usman attacked the kidnapper, disarmed him and set us free.

“He left the kidnapper down after he had beaten and injured him seriously with stone.

“He is later reported dead when negotiations were on to release a Pastor in their hand.

“They demanded that Usman should be handed over to them.



“Usman took away the kidnapper’s gun and moved out of the forest.

“But on his way out, he dropped the gun somewhere in the forest for fear or been presumed kidnapper by the police or anybody.

“He met a police patrol vehicle immediately after coming out of the forest.

“He was taken to Kaduna and debriefed. He later led the police team to recover the gun he dropped, but I was nowhere to be found.



“In his bravery, Usman freed himself and many others. Sometimes, we need to display a little courage to set ourselves free from captivity since nobody would go to save anyone once taken.

“Some of these bandits and kidnappers are weak and malnourished. Their only power is the gun they are holding. May Allah continue to protect us. Amin,” the victim said.

Cold metal no dey give warning

Hmmm

When Niger delta militants began kidnapping expatriates oil workers, they were supported by some nigerians. Today there is no many expatriates to be kidnapped and we have started kidnapping ourselves.

The same thing happened to boko haram. When they started bombing the igbos,christians and churches, even Buhari is being quoted to have said that a fight against boko haram is a fight against the north. Today boko haram has started bombing mosques, Muslims and northerners.

Now IPOB beat and stone their elders, and we support them because they beat only the rich and powerful today. Quote me, they will one day start beating both the rich and the poor if not checkmated today.


Nigeria go better.

Hmmm... Very doable if it's just one kidnapper. once they are more than one it becomes harder especially when only one kidnapped victim has much courage.

James bondd

And Tinubu is still looking for their cows.

There's no way these kidnappers are operating successfully without the blessing and support of Nigeria Police... I sense even the I.G himself is culpable.

Super man

The victim ended with "Some of the kidnapper are weak and ....."


And he couldn't fight them before Abdul came

Danger mouse...Amazing...

That's why in my bed just under my pillow I always keep a weapon there, for security reasons u never can tell when it would be useful to you, these days we keep on hearing bad news all over Nigeria

WHY ISN'T D GOVT SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT D SPATE OF KIDNAPPING ON DAT AXIS?? D situation is now so bad dat most of d daily kidnappings now even go unreported... Jus last week ppl were kidnapped along d Abuja Lokoja axis.. One of d major transport companies and it's passengers were one of d victims, along with other unlucky transporters and road users. Till date there hasn't been any official report by d police concerning d incident.

Disjointed story.
Of course it's from another of those sorry blogs run by a likely semi literate or poorly schooled wannabe journalist.
Kidnapper he was said to have disarmed later 'reported dead during negotiation'.
Also as they were matching out what happened to the main body of kidnappers that reportedly stayed back to steal from the vehicles.
It's also improbable that those kidnappers would have left just one of them,even if armed to escort the kidnapped to their base.

RAMBO IN NIGERIA

B4 u engage an arm person in a combat always apply caution because if you miss eh...

This is interesting.
Just a little courage and all those stunts we watched in movies come back to help.
Nice one Usman.

No man is invisible including these useless kidnappers
