In the Nigerian Army Estate in Kurudu, Abuja, kidnappers had targeted the residence of Cyril Adikwu on Thursday night around 10 pm. They had seized his wife and two in-laws, prompting a demand for a hefty ransom.

Adikwu, who managed to escape during the invasion, revealed that the kidnappers communicated with him, demanding over N30 million within a specified time frame.

Recounting the experience, he stated, “It all happened on Thursday night at about 10:00 pm when a vehicle containing those who were kidnapped drove into my compound, and then all of a sudden the kidnappers followed the vehicle into my compound.”

“There were about 8 of them, and they walked through the bush path over the hill to the other side. I was called to provide a ransom, I don’t want to mention the amount because already false information is everywhere in the media about the whole incident, but I can assure you it’s more than 30 million.”

Adikwu disclosed that the kidnappers have been in contact, emphasizing the urgency imposed by their given time frame.
