Bandits wreaking havoc in Kaduna State have abducted a Divisional Police Officer, DPO, in the state.
The DPO, whose base is in Birnin Gwari, was abducted in early hours on Monday along Kaduna-Birnin Gwari highway.
The DPO, who was recently posted to the area, was reportedly on his way to Birnin Gwari to report at his duty post when he was abducted.
This is coming barely four days after bandits abducted a DPO in Nasarawa State and demanded N5 million ransom.
Police in the state are yet to issue a statement on the incident.
