The Vice Chairperson of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, in Taraba State, Zainab Kishimi, has been kidnapped.
According to a close family friend, Kishimi, who is also a senior member of the International Federation of Female Lawyers, was seized around 8:00pm on Friday from her residence behind Central Bank in Jalingo, the state capital.
He said, “Zainab Kishimi, Vice Chairperson of the Nigerian Bar Association, Jalingo Branch, was abducted from her house at about 8:00pm last night.
“It is sad and terrible that a principal state counsel with the Ministry of Justice could be so kidnapped.
“For us at NBA, it is indeed a rude shock because we thought kidnapping had been contained with the recruitment of local hunters.”
