A 300-Level student of Bayero University, Kano, identified as Sakina Bello has been abducted by gunmen suspected to be kidnappers.

It was gathered that Bello was kidnapped while commuting between Janbulo and Rijiyar Zaki area of the Kano metropolis on Tuesday, October 5.

The abductors later called on Wednesday morning, October 5, demanding N100million ransom.

Spokesman for Kano Police Command, DSP Abdullahi Kiyawa, who confirmed the abduction said the police received a report of a missing person around 3pm on Tuesday and started investigating the matter immediately.
