Suspected terrorists have reportedly kidnapped an unspecified number of travelers along Abuja-Kaduna expressway on Sunday.

Daily Nigerian reports that dozens of terrorists, often referred to as bandits, opened fire sporadically on travelers around 4pm, forcing many drivers to lose control.

Sources told Daily Nigerian that many passengers who attempted to run were fired at, while those who cooperated were shepherded into the bush.
