The assailants invaded the Tungan Maje community along Zuba-Gwagwalada highway on Thursday.

They also kidnapped Friday Sani Makama, a former member of the Kogi House of Assembly and others.

The victims were taken from a hotel in Tungan Maje in the Zuba area of Abuja.

The whereabouts of Makama, Adejoh, a hotel owner, and an unspecified number of guests, including politicians, are unknown.

The manhunt is being conducted by the command’s special squad.
