Kidnappers have demanded N70m to release the former Nasarawa deputy governor.

 

Glamtush reports that abductors of the former Deputy Governor of Nasarawa state, Professor Onje Gye Wado, have demanded a N70 million ransom for his release.

This online platform understands that a family source who is monitoring the developments told our correspondent that the kidnappers placed a call for the first time since the abduction of professor Onje Gye Wado demanding a N70 million ransom for the release of the abductees.

It would be recalled that Professor Onje Gye-Wado, was kidnapped Thursday night in Rinz village of Wamba local government area by unknown gunmen.

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.

Available information obtained by our correspondent indicated that the family is pleading with the abductors to accept the two million because they can not raise anything 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.
