Speaking to journalists about the incident in Makurdi, the state capital, the daughter of the late former governor, Deborah Aku, disclosed that the police were able to rescue six of them before the hoodlums finally had access to launch the attack.
The governor’s daughter disclosed that the problem began in March when a man came to the house with a cutlass, threatening to deal with them should his goat die again. She said the man claimed that his goat died after drinking water from the house.
According to Aku, the matter has been reported to the Police Division in Gboko and charged to court.
However, the new attack happened between 7 am and 8 am on Monday when the hoodlums attacked the house and trapped the six members of the family.
