ABDUCTION of persons by suspected kidnappers
has taken a new worrisome dimension in Edo State following the kidnapping on
Wednesday morning of five Lagos-bound passengers by gunmen on the Lagos-Benin
road near Ogbemudia farms.
Vanguard gathered that the passengers were
among occupants of a Greener Line space wagon Siena bus travelling from Warri,
DeltaState to Lagos when they ran into a barricade along the Benin-Ore-
Sagamu-Lagos road.
The suspected kidnappers were said to have
blocked the highway with a truck, and the bus driver on sighting the barricade,
slowed down.
Soon after, some gun-totting men were said to
have emerged from the bush and took the passengers hostage after allowing the
driver and one passenger to go and give information about the incident.
It was further learnt that one of the victims
who lives in Lagos, was said to be returning to the state after a naming
ceremony of his new-born baby in Warri when he was abducted along with other
passengers.
The father of the victim, a retired army
colonel, told Vanguard that the kidnappers had made contact and demanded N3
million ransom to set his son free, even as he pleaded with them to release his
son unhurt, saying that it was difficult for the family to raise the amount
they demanded.
When contacted, Edo State Police Command Acting
Public Relations Officer, Awhara Ejiroro, said he was yet to be briefed on the
incident.
