\"Gunmen<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Four persons have been kidnapped at a construction site in Niger State<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The construction site is said to be located at Erena in the Shiroro Local Government Area of Niger State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the kidnapped, it was learnt, is one Abubakar Jibrin who works for the Niger State Ministry of Works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development was confirmed in a statement by the Niger State government on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the statement, Mary Noel-Berje, the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Abubakar Bello, quoted him as saying:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is time to take the fight to their hideouts and root them out of the communities. Enough is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe government is on top of the situation and the abducted persons would be rescued and reunited with their families within the shortest possible time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The governor regretted that the incident came at a period his administration was embarking on the construction of some rural roads across the state to enhance economic activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said no amount of banditry or criminality in parts of the state would hinder his government from realising its rural road transformation goal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
