The Defence Headquarters in Abuja has confirmed that bandits breached National Defence Academy (NDA) security fences and kidnapped an officer.
The Director of Defence Information (DDI), General Benjamin Sawyerr, confirmed the incident to our reporter on Tuesday.
OBSERVERS TIMES recall that armed bandits attacked the premier defence institution in the wee hours of Tuesday, killing two officers and abducting four others.
But Sawyerr said the bandits sneaked into the NDA complex at about 0215 hours and abducted an officer and killed two other officers.
He said the operation was well planned as the bandits knew exactly who they wanted and went straight to his accommodation.
“Yes the NDA security was breached by bandits, they sneaked in at about 02:15 hours. It must have been a well planned operation. They went straight into the officers’ accommodation. They knew where they were going. They killed two officers and abducted two.
