Just In : Kidnappers of former Nasarawa Dep Gov make contact, demand outrageous request
Abductors of the former Deputy Governor of Nasarawa state, Professor Onje Gye Wado, have demanded a N70 million ransom for his release.
It would be recalled that Professor Onje Gye-Wado was kidnapped on Thursday night in Rinz village of Wamba local government area by unknown gunmen.
But less than 24hours after the professor’s abduction, a family source said his kidnappers have reached out with a ransom demand of N70million.
According to the Vanguard, the source said “the kidnappers are in touch with the family of Prof and they have demanded the sum of N70 million naira, while the family has offered N2 million naira..
It is believed that the family is pleading with the abductors to accept the two million because they can not raise any thing more than the two million due to the public holidays declared by the federal government for the Easter celebration.
“Today Friday, till Monday, is public holiday, there is no where we can get money and we want him (Prof), back alive” the source said.
