Unknown gunmen have kidnapped a member representing Nguroje Constituency in the Taraba House of Assembly, Barr. Bashir Mohammed.
Mohammed was abducted from his residence at about 1am, on Wednesday, a family source said.
The lawmaker was the Chairman of the House Committee on Information.
This happened barely 24 hours after President Muhammadu Buhari vowed to unleash the military against kidnappers.
Buhari said he would ensure the military eliminates kidnappers and bandits across the country.
He spoke during his meeting with the 36 state governors yesterday in Abuja.
”We are thinking very hard on the issue of kidnapping.
”We will make it possible for the military to get to the bandits and kidnappers and eliminate them,” Buhari had said.
The police is yet to confirm the abduction of the politician.
