The people of Guaraka Community in Tafa Local Government Area of Niger State  have caused serious traffic gridlock on the ever busy Abuja-Kaduna Highway as they barricade the road while protesting on Monday against high frequency of kidnapping and armed banditry in their area.
 
SECURITY REPORTERS.com gathered that they were  demanding that the State and the Federal government must boost security in their area to avert incessant attacks by hoodlums.
 
The protest came on the heels of kidnappings carried out from Saturday to Sunday where at least 15 persons were kidnapped in the Community leaving three persons dead.

Residents lament of losing sleep as a result of unchecked attacks by kidnappers and bandits noting that more than 30 persons have been kidnapped in the community from January till date.
 
According to reports, Niger State has been under incessant attacks by kidnappers and bandits.
