A Chinese national has been abducted by some gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen at Igbemo-Ekiti in Irelodun/ Ifelodun area of Ekiti State.
The expatriate identified as one of the experts supervising the construction of Ilupeju-Ire-Igbemo-Ijan road, was said to have been waylaid at Igbemo-Ekiti while driving in a Hilux Van and whisked away to unknown destination by arm-wielding attackers.
The latest kidnapping happened three months after similar occurrence had happened in Iyin-Ekiti when two Chinese handling the construction of the new Ado-Iyin road were kidnapped.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officers, Ekiti Command, ASP Sunday Abutu, said the operatives of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) have launched a manhunt for the kidnappers.
“Our RRS men swung into action immediately the news was broken. They are combing all the surrounding bushes and we are sure that the abductee will be released soon.”
