Six people were kidnapped; five males and one female while loading stones on the farm which were expected to be suppliers to their consumers.
The suspected criminals who were fully armed whisked the six victims away to a yet-to-be-disclosed destination.
Newsflash Nigeria gathered that about 12 Northerners who are the workers of these victims were asked to run away by gunmen and kidnapped the six indigenes among them.
