Bandits have attacked Kakafu community in Kwara State’s Patigi Local Government Area, abducting between three and four residents.
The attack occurred around 1:30 a.m. on Sunday, just a day after terrorists released a video showing 176 kidnap victims from the state.
Though, details surrounding the attack remain unclear, while security agencies are yet to issue an official statement on the incident.
Community members have expressed concern over the growing security challenges in parts of Kwara North, calling for urgent intervention by authorities.
In the last three months, Kwara North has witnessed a series of security breaches, with rural communities increasingly targeted by terrorist elements operating along forest corridors linking parts of Niger and Kogi states.
Security analysts have warned that the movement of armed groups from neighbouring states, coupled with vast ungoverned forest areas, has contributed to the spread of kidnapping and violent attacks in previously calmer parts of Kwara.
