It’s important to note that it took police two hours to arrive at the scene despite the heavy gunshots fir£d by the bandits. The bandits were so comfortable, they took their sweet time and did what they wanted before leaving.

I called the Abuja emergency department number by 10:49 PM to report the shooting, they told me that they are on their way but they came by 1 AM after the incident happened.
