The victim is Zainab Isa Zakari Bosuwa.
According to her sister, Hafsat Bosuwa, the abduction took place at about 1am on Monday.
“The gunmen scaled the fence to our house through our neighbor’s compound after threatening him with a gun,” Hafsat said.
“It was about 1 am in the morning when we heard some people burgling our windows, because the doors could not be broken.”
