PDP Vice Chairman’s wife, Asabe, 10 others kidnapped in Kuje

The wife of the Vice-Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party in Gwargwada Ward, Kuje Area Council, Asabe Mohmmed Koriya has been kidnapped by gunmen.

Koriya was kidnapped on Friday at about 5 pm alongside ten others.

A relation of one of the victims identified as Salihu Ibrahim disclosed that they were abducted along Gwargwada-Gwombe junction near the Rubochi community.

According to Ibrahim, the victims were abducted while returning to Gwombe and Pesu villages after attending a political function at the neighbouring Gwargwada village.

He further stated that the kidnappers who were more than 30 in number, barricaded the road with logs of wood, flagged down motorcycles and whisked the victims into the bush.

Ibrahim said, “But two other persons who were on a motorcycle escaped. Upon sighting the kidnappers, they abandoned the motorcycle and fled into the bush but the kidnappers set the motorcycle ablaze.”

The Agabe of Gwargwada-Ugbada, Hussaini Agabi Mam, confirmed the abduction of 11 people, including the wife of the PDP ward chairman of the area.

He said, “Three of the victims are from my place, four from Pesu while the remaining victims are from the neighbouring Gwombe village.”

The monarch disclosed that the kidnappers called at about 9 am on Monday to inform them that the victims are in their den.

He added that they demanded twenty-five million Naira ransom before the victims will be set free.

The monarch noted that one of the victims told the kidnappers that no one among the victims can afford one hundred thousand Naira not to talk of raising a million naira.

He noted that the kidnappers had since stopped picking calls.
