Some suspected bandits have kidnapped three individuals, including two palace officials, and set several houses ablaze in the Bunyun community, located in the Bashar District of Wase Local Government Area, Plateau State.
The attack occurred around 7:30 pm on Wednesday, July 9, 2025.
The paramount ruler of the community, Abdulbari’u Muhammad, who confirmed the incident to journalists in Jos on Thursday, said that the bandits stormed the community in large numbers, riding on motorcycles, and looted valuable items, including food, clothes, and motorcycles.
“We are completely confused and don’t know what to do, which is why we fled to Bashar. Everybody has fled because people are afraid to remain in the area," Muhammad said.
