Abductors of APC national director demand N350m ransom

The abductors of Dr. Adekunle Raif Adeniji, the Director of Administration at the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Secretariat, Abuja, have demanded a ransom of N350m for his release. Dr Adeniji was abducted two weeks ago by gunmen wielding AK-47 rifles in the Chikakore area of Kubwa, within the Bwari Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). He was taken along with three others, including his brother, the wife and son, during the attack. It was gathered that the APC chieftain was on a visit to his brothers residence when the gunmen struck.However, the brothers wife, Madam Esther, was k!lled by the abductors and her body was discovered around Ijah-Gbagyi community in Tafa Local Government Area of Niger State the following day. His family was reportedly contacted by the kidnappers, who are insisting that the payment be made for his freedom.   A member of the family, who spoke with Daily Trust on Tuesday, February 11, said the director and others were still in captivity and the abductors said he will not be released until the money is paid. A source within the APC also confirmed this development the publication. A source at the APC national secretariat said, Yes, its true. But its not something that we want to discuss. On whether the abductors have demanded a ransom, he said, Well, efforts are being made to secure his release, and we dont want to blow it. Another top official at the partys national secretariat in Abuja also confirmed the abduction. Its true. This one I am telling you is a confidential confirmation. But we are seeing to his release soon.  The post Abductors of APC national director demand N350m ransom appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
