Reports from Kaduna disclosed that a pregnant woman abducted July this year has put to bed while in captivity.
The victim reportedly called on her ailing mother when bandits abducted her alongside her two sisters.
The victim’s husband, Muhammad Alabi, decried the traumatic development, adding that his wife was maltreated and severally flogged.
He stated that, “My wife gave birth at the kidnappers’ camp on 2nd August, 2022 and since then, both mother and child have not received any medical attention and to make matter worse, we learnt they were being maltreated and flogged.
“We are all dying emotionally and physically, that is why we are appealing to whoever God will use to secure their release to please help us free them.”
Recounting the family’s ordeal, father of the victims, Malam Abdulwahab Yusuf said the bandits broke into their Mando home around 1:05 am on the day of the attack.
“My two daughters used to take care of their mother who is sick, but unfortunately, that day their elder sister, who is pregnant came from her husband’s house to look after her mother when the bandits broke into the house and kidnapped my three daughters.
“They initially asked for N140 million, but now they have reduced the ransom to N50 million. The family has been adversely affected by the trauma. My wife, who was able to walk unaided before the incident, now uses wheelchair.
“We just carried out a surgery on her. I have not been myself, I cannot sleep, once it is night I don’t know how my body feels.”
