Bandits Ask For N30m Ransom, 2 Motorcycles to Release Abducted Party Aspirant
Bandits that abducted a councillorship aspirant, Japheth Zarma Yakubu, in Kurmin-Kare community, Kachia LGA of Kaduna State, have demanded a N20 million ransom and two motorcycles for his release.
A source revealed that the bandits’ leader called on Sunday morning through the victim’s phone and asked the family to raise N20 million, and provide two motorcycles, for them.
The source further explained that one of the victim’s relatives is negotiating with the bandits to see if the ransom could be reduced.
“The relative of the victim came to inform us on how he had been able to talk to the bandits’ leader on the need to reduce the ransom demanded due to the economic hardship of the present situation,” the source said.
The bandits abducted the victim when he went to inspect his farm last week Thursday.
ASP Hassan Mansur, the spokesman of the Kaduna State Police Command was yet to confirm the incident as at the time of this report.
