Gunmen have abducted a woman identified as Mrs. Theresa Enyinda from Omukworoga village in Omerelu community, Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State and demanded N20 million for her release. A source, Mr. Assor Innocent, said the bandits invaded the community from the bushes and abducted Enyinda. “She was kidnapped in her house around 1pm Saturday.
Policemen have come to interrogate some people who were around to find out what happened,” Innocent explained. He disclosed that the abductors had established contact, demanding N20 million ‘on the ground that one of her children is in Dubai and that the family is capable of providing the amount.”
He said apart from the abductions, hoodlums had taken over their farm roads and had made a nearby Government Secondary School as the building where they keep their victims. “They rape girls, steal and molest men on daily basis. We are calling on the security operatives to intervene,” he said. When contacted, the Public Relations Officer of the Rivers State Police Command, Mr. Nnamdi Omoni, said he needed to reach the District Police Officers in the area the incident took place before he could comment.
