A member of the House of Representatives Committee on Appropriation, representing Edu/Moro/Patigi federal constituency of Kwara State, Hon. Ahmed Adamu Saba, has raised the alarm over cases of attacks of bandits and kidnappers in his federal constituency.

Saba, therefore, urged the leadership of security agencies in the country to rise to the ugly development as the attacks had continued to take  toll on the people of the constituency in the past few weeks.

Speaking with newsmen on the state of the nation in Ilorin, Hon. Saba, who stated that,  he has been deeply traumatised  and saddened about the development, commiserated with the families, relations and friends of the victims.

He said, “Almost two weeks ago in Tashagi community, in Edu Local Government Area, a Cattle rearer was killed in his residence, while five of his children abducted by the gunmen are nowhere to be found.”

Apart from this, the lawmaker stated that, “In Gbugbu community, along Ndeji road, another community, a petrol dealer, who was kidnapped with his manager by gunmen have not been released more than two weeks after their abduction.

“The duo victims have paid N100million as ransom to their abductees, but they are yet to be released from their den and still demanded for another N50million before they could be released from their den.”
