A commercial bus driver simply called Sapamo along with four passengers travelling from Ayetoro/Gbede in Ijumu Local Government Area of Kogi State, have been reportedly kidnapped along the Obajana – Kabba road.
The victims were said to be returning to Lokoja, the capital on Monday, when they were attacked and abducted.
A relation of the driver said the kidnappers contacted the family and initially demanded for N10 million for their release, but “after much negotiation, the kidnappers lowered the ransom to N4 million” for their brother and the four others.
All efforts to confirm the development from the state police command headquarters proved abortive, as the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Williams Aya was yet to respond to calls put across to his mobile lines.
