Usungwe community in Okehi Local Government Area of Kogi State was thrown into panic after gunmen reportedly invaded the area, abducting a woman along with her children. The incident, which occurred on [Monday, December 2, 2025], has intensified fears among residents who are already concerned about recurring insecurity in rural parts of the state.
Details regarding the identities of the victims, the assailants, and the circumstances surrounding the attack remain scant. Local authorities and security agencies have yet to release an official statement, leaving families anxious for the safe return of the kidnapped individuals.
This incident adds to a growing list of violent attacks across Kogi State, raising questions about the effectiveness of current security measures and the safety of residents in vulnerable communities.
Stone Reporters Observed that this abduction underscores the persistent security gaps in rural Kogi communities, where residents often face repeated threats from armed groups with little immediate protection. Similar incidents in other parts of the state suggest that law enforcement agencies must adopt proactive and community-centered strategies to prevent further kidnappings and ensure swift responses. The recurrence of such attacks highlights a pressing need for coordinated intelligence, rapid deployment of security forces, and community awareness programs to restore public confidence.
