Gunmen kidnap two in Ondo, demand N10m ransom
Gunmen suspected to be bandits have reportedly kidnapped two persons at Ifira axis in Akoko South-East Local Government Area of Ondo State.
It was gathered that the gunmen ambushed the victims on their way to the farm and whisked them into the forest.
A family member of the victims disclosed on Crest FM, Akure, during a phone-in programme on Tuesday, that the incident has been reported to both the police and Amotekun Corps.
The family who stated that the two were kidnapped last week, said the abductors were demanding N10 million ransom for their freedom.
“We’ve reported the incident to the police and Amotekun Corps in our area. We’re begging the security agencies and government to help us rescue our brothers unhurt,” he pleaded.
Efforts to get the reaction of the spokesperson for the Ondo State Police Command, DSP Abayomi Jimoh, on the incident were unsuccedful.
