“In the morning there was a shooting at about 3 am this morning and these boys (gunmen), about 20 of them, they entered through the fence at the back, and they succeeded in entering the house of a politician.

“They broke the door and they took so many things, Plasma, phone, laptops and many things,” Simon said.

He, however dismissed reports that certain persons were abducted. “There is nothing like kidnapping,” he said.
