Around 18 people have been kidnapped in Keke, a community in Kaduna State’s Chikun Local Government Area.
The gunmen are alleged to have entered the community at 12 a.m., according to the Daily Trust.
According to eyewitnesses, the gunmen arrived in huge numbers and grabbed 18 people after causing panic in the area.
The police are currently in the neighborhood, according to reports.
However, no formal confirmation has been received from the government.
In a series of raids on the North-West states in particular, bandits have ravaged Kaduna.
Ungwan Magaji, Kigam, Kisicho, and Kikoba villages were among those hit in August, according to Samuel Aruwan, the state commissioner for internal security and home affairs.
Joseph Maza, Timvan Cibi Ciwo, Monday Titus, Asabe Magani, Laraba Danladi, and Yosi Danladi were among the victims killed by bandits, according to Aruwan.
