A senior officer with the Nigerian Army School of Infantry, Jaji, Kaduna, has been kidnapped.
Samaila Inusa, a colonel, was abducted on Saturday in the city by yet-to-be-identified gunmen.
His abduction came one week after three clergy men suffered the same fate in Kaduna.
Inusa and his wife were reportedly driving along Kamazo road, near NNPC junction, Kaduna, around 7.30pm when the abductors on their trail overtook them.
They blocked his car, pulled the officer’s wife out of the car and drove off with him in his car, according to the army.
Usman Abdul, a colonel and deputy director, public relations, 1 Division, Kaduna, said the abductors then headed towards Abuja.
“They were in a Mercedes Benz GLK Black colour with registration number Abuja, KUJ 154 TZ. This happened at about 7:30pm on Saturday 26 March 2016,” he said.
He appealed to members of the public to contact 08033865572, 08030489203 and 080
