Mansur Kaura, the bank manager of TAJ Bank Zamfara State branch, has been kidnapped by bandits.
Kaura was abducted when the bandits broke into his home in the Rijiyar Gabas neighborhood of Gusau, the state capital, on Tuesday, May 7, 2024, at around one in the morning, according to local resident Musa Ibrahim.
“The bandits, who carried sophisticated weapons, began to shoot sporadically in all directions immediately after they arrived at the manager’s residence,” he said.
“When they realised that the people of the area were hiding in their houses, they went straight to the bank manager’s residence and broke the door and then whisked him away
Ibrahim said the manager, when being driven away, was shouting for help but nobody could come out to rescue him.
“He was shouting for help but unfortunately, nobody could risk his life to come out and help him,” he said.
