Friday, October 10, 2025 - Bandits have again, struck Edu Local Government Area of Kwara State, k!lling one and kidnapping stepbrothers in the process.
The gunmen had stormed Gbale community at about 2:00 a.m. on

vigilantes, who engaged them in a gun duel.
Sensing the superior firepower of the villagers, the
hoodlums were said to have left the area in a hurry and advanced to Bishewa
settlement, where they successfully launched havoc.
A dependable source reported that they arrived at
approximately 3:00 a.m. and went to a house occupied by two stepbrothers.

gained entry.
"They killed Ndako, the elder brother, and took the
younger one, Audu, away,” the source explained.
Another source stated that the vigilantes in Edu were able
to repel the attackers not because they were awake, but because “they had
superior ammunition, that were why they left."
