Hobnob News gathered they were abducted in the early hours of Tuesday at their residence in Saminaka, a community along Gusau-Sokoto road in Gusau, the State capital.
An eyewitness told newsmen that “the armed bandits broke the wall of the victim’s apartment and forced their way inside”.
They asked for the husband, and as they could not get the husband, the terrorists whisked away the wife and her eldest son to an unknown destination,” the source told Hobnob News.
It was further gathered the husband of the victim is a lecturer at the Federal College of Technology, FCET Gusau.
The abduction was coming two days after abductors of four female Students of Zamfara State College of Arts and Science, released video of the hostages and threatened to give them out in marriage if twelve million Naira ransom was not paid within a week.
All efforts to reach the State’s Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, ASP Yazid Abubakar proved abortive as he was not answering calls as of the time of filing this report.
