Some unknown gunmen on Tuesday, allegedly killed an official of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) at Sabo-Wuse Area, on the Niger axis of Abuja-Kaduna Highway.
Corps Public Education Officer, Bisi Kazeem, who confirmed the official’s death, said two other marshals were abducted by the gunmen.
Kazeem identified the deceased as Marshal Inspector 1, Ardo Njiga, and one of those kidnapped as Senior Road Marshal Assistant, Garba Bello.
The identity of the third victim had yet to be ascertained.
“The marshals took permission to be with their families in Kaduna, at the weekend, and were on their way back to Abuja when the attack took place.
“Njiga was killed at the scene while Garba and the third marshal were taken to an unknown destination, alongside the other occupants of the bus. The matter is now with the security agencies, and it is our hope that our men are rescued and brought back to us alive,” Kazeem said.
