The vigilantes have arrested two friends, Ismaila Yakubu and Kabiru Aliyu, for allegedly gang -raping a 19-year -old Fulani girl in Ikwa community, Gwagwalada Area Council of the FCT.
A member of the vigilante, Usman Dantala, said the incident happened on Saturday around 2:12 pm when the two friends lured the girl into one of their friends’ room and gang raped her.
He said the two friends, who are commercial cyclists, invited the Fulani girl to sell nunu for them at one of their friends’ houses and lured her into the room and gang raped her.
He said it was a neighbour, who raised an alarm after he overheard some strange noise from the room through his window and became suspicious.
