A woman who went shopping on Sunday at the popular Vegetable Market, off Airport Road in Benin City, has reportedly been abducted.

The woman was at the market with her children and husband when gunmen reportedly came to the scene and whisked her away.

In a video online, a woman who claimed to have witnessed the incident described it as kidnapping, stressing, “Today, for the first time, I witnessed someone being kidnapped.”

She continued, “Who said kidnapping is not in Benin? A kidnapping happened in my presence right at Airport Road by the Vegetable Market. Just because it has not happened to you does not mean it doesn’t exist.

“I saved the woman’s children today. This is me. It happened in front of me. We were both buying something in the same place, at the vegetable market. This is me; I have bruises. These are my legs.” Related News Gunmen invade Ondo community, kidnap 60-year-old Baale Group mourns ex-army general, opposes amnesty for terrorists Gunmen kidnap woman in Edo
