Suspected kidnappers were said to have ambushed travellers in Ekiti State, killing one person and made away with others
Vanguard gathered that victims of the latest attack were ambushed late on Saturday evening, at a location between Ikere Ekiti, headquarters of Ikere Local Government of Ekiti State and Iju, a boundary town in Ondo State.
The victims were said to have been waylaid after the hoodlums suddenly came from the bush to stop their vehicles with guns.
It was not clear as of the time of this report if occupants of about three vehicles allegedly involved, one after the other, managed to escape with their passengers, but the police in Ekiti state gave account of only vehicle.
