The kidnappers of Barrister Cyril Adikwu’s wife and two in-laws from Nigeria Army post Housing Estate Kurudu in Abuja have demanded over 30 million naira ransom.
Recall that Kidnappers invaded the Army Estate in the Kurudu area of Abuja on Thursday night at about 10:00 pm and took away his wife and two in-laws.
Speaking with Vanguard about the incidence, Barrister Cyril Adikwu who had escaped while the kidnappers came to his residence in the estate said he was in communication with the kidnappers and they have demanded a ransom of over 30 million naira within a time frame.
He said ” It all happens on Thursday night at about 10:00pm when a vehicle containing those who were kidnapped drove into my compound then all of a sudden the kidnappers followed the vehicle into my compound.
“I was upstairs and heard strange sounds so I peeped through the burglary door upstairs and saw one of them who was kidnapped on the floor and I asked what is going on there and she said ‘I don’t know these men are asking me to go down then it occurred to me they were kidnappers then I started screaming ‘Kidnappers help” at the top of my voice, at this point they started shooting at me upstairs then I was able to escape and then they started shooting guns in the air while they took the three of them away.
“They were about 8 of them and they walked through the bush part over the hill to the otherside, not up to 40 minutes they left 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 30million.
“I am traumatized right now after the whole incident and the kidnappers have been calling me and have given a time frame.
