Awka- Kidnappers operating in Anambra State have dared Governor Chukwuma Soludo to abduct one person barely 48 hours after the launch of ‘Operation Udo ga achi’ security outfit.
The victim was abducted at Aku village, Ezinifitte community in Aguata local government area of the state.
According to a cousin of the victim,, the man was abducted at around 11 pm on Sunday and was being driven around in his vehicle, while ransom demands were being negotiated, adding however that he was released on Monday by 7 am.
He said: “The kidnapped victim has thankfully been released this morning, but not without a heavy cost. His entire account was emptied through a POS transaction linked to a MoniePoint account.
“I deeply appreciate all your prayers, messages, and offers of help during this difficult time. Your support means so much.”
Though he failed to reveal the amount paid as ransom, he however begged that clues on how to recover funds lost in such circumstances would be appreciated.
The state Police command was yet to react to the latest development.
