Suspected Abduction Of NJC Personnel In Abuja Causes Alarm .
Investigation revealed that the kidnappers who had obviously monitored the lonely stretch of road with easy access to the Mai express leading to Kaduna and the city Centre exploited the total absence of police presence to strike.
“It was a moment of shock to the agitated residents. It is a classic case of what they fear most happening to them as this matter has dominated discussions.
“A woman, a staff of the National Judicial Council was abducted just at the junction linking the three estates. We cannot say exactly whether they have called to demand ransom. Perhaps, the police should be in a better position to say what happened.
“Efab Metropolitan Estate where the abducted lady is resident has a police station which is under Gwarimpa Division.
“The area is too lonely apart from the fact that the junction, that is, the intersection is bad. In fact, the entire area is a perfect scene for crime any day.
“So when the Gwarimpa Division of the Police started deployment to the area, the embattled residents heaved a sigh of relief.
“However, prior to the incident of kidnap, the police withdrew their men leaving the people to their fate.
“The issue is that some of the operators of shanties chased away by the three estates have relocated to the express where they sell fruits, fish, food items, and all manner of things.
“A lot of questionable characters loiter around the area obviously to study the movement of targets for attack.
When contacted, FCT Police PRO, DSP Josephine Adeh promised to carry out checks and get back but never did. Several calls after and text messages to the line were neither answered nor responded to.

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nentawe Yilwatda, has stated that he finds entertainment in the ongoing bitter feud between opposition parties, describing their internal crises as entirely self-inflicted.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday, Yilwatda clarified that the ruling party is currently not engaged in political warfare with its rivals. Instead, he noted that the real battle is raging between the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
“Over the past three weeks, the APC hasn’t been fighting the ADC or NDC. It’s been NDC against ADC,” Yilwatda remarked. “Honestly, I’ve been watching the insults traded between both parties with absolute amusement. I watch the videos and just laugh. The self-implosion is happening within the opposition, not the APC.”
When questioned on whether he was secretly orchestrating the chaos to weaken his rivals, the APC chairman denied direct involvement but openly admitted that neutralizing the opposition is part of his mandate.
“I am not doing it, but I’d be glad if I could—that is my job,” he stated. “As the ruling party, my role is to stop the opposition, not to make them happy.”
Yilwatda further argued that the APC remains the most stable political entity in Nigeria due to its robust internal conflict resolution committees and its advanced, data-driven membership registration. He revealed that the APC is the only party that links its membership database directly with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), ensuring a transparent and credible structure.

APC National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda says he is helping himself to front-row entertainment as opposition parties tear each other apart in what he describes as a “self-inflicted implosion.”
Featuring on Channels TV’s Politics Today, Yilwatda pointed out that the ruling party has stepped back to watch the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) engage in a fierce war of words.
“I watch the videos and laugh,” Yilwatda admitted, referencing the heavy insults traded between the two factions over the last three weeks.
While dismissing allegations that he is masterminding the division, the APC boss didn’t hide his satisfaction, stating bluntly that weakening rival parties is simply part of the political game. “If you are in the opposition, my job is to stop you,” he declared.
He credited the APC’s ongoing stability to its solid internal dispute mechanisms and a highly digitized, data-driven membership system integrated directly with NIMC.
Option 3: Editorial / Analytical Style
Headline: The Opposition is Imploding on Its Own, Says APC Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda
In a candid television appearance on Monday, All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda dismissed claims that the ruling party is actively fighting the opposition, asserting that rival parties are currently destroying themselves from within.
Appearing on Channels Television, Yilwatda highlighted the escalating hostility between the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), confessing that he has been watching their exchange of fireworks “with fun.”
Addressing suspicions of political sabotage, Yilwatda maintained that while he isn’t pulling the strings behind the opposition’s crisis, he welcomes it as a political advantage. According to him, dismantling opposition strategies is a core responsibility of his leadership.
Beyond the political drama, Yilwatda defended the structural integrity of the APC, pointing to its state and national reconciliation committees as key pillars of its stability. He also emphasized that the APC’s reliance on NIMC data for membership registration makes it Nigeria’s most technologically advanced and viable political party.
