More than 50 people were kidnapped by gunmen in northwest Nigeria in a mass abduction on Friday. 'Armed bandits' targeted a village in Zamfara, in the first "mass capture" incident in the area this year. Nigeria's "banditry" crisis originated in conflict over land and water rights between herders and farmers but has now turned into an organised crime.
