Brutal Hotel Attack in Abuja Leaves Visitors Injured and Fighting for Their Lives

Abuja – A horrifying attack on a hotel in Abuja has left several visitors injured, with some still battling for their lives. The incident occurred on Saturday night, with photos of the victims circulating online revealing the extent of the attack.

According to eyewitnesses, the hotel, located on 1st Avenue, Gwarimpa, was targeted by robbers who subjected every visitor to robbery, stabbing, and severe injuries. “It was a terrifying experience. They didn’t spare anyone,” said one of the eyewitnesses (name withheld for security reasons).

One of the victims, a man who was in Abuja for a visa interview, is currently fighting for his life in the Accident and Emergency (A&E) unit of a nearby hospital. “His condition is critical. He has severe stab wounds and is struggling to survive,” said a hospital source who requested anonymity.

Despite the severity of the incident, efforts to get a reaction from the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Public Relations Officer, SP Josephine Adeh, were futile as calls and messages put across to her were not responded to.
