A Nigerian lawyer, Oladosu Folorunso Ariyo, has narrated how kidnappers in military camouflage abducted his wife, their four children and later killed his 13-year-old daughter over failure to pay N60m ransom.
Mr. Ariyo, an alumnus of Adekunle Ajasin University, Akungba-Akoko (AAUA) and indigene of Ekiti State, disclosed this in a desperate message sent to his colleagues on their WhatsApp group, seeking the
intervention of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
The victims were abducted by the
gunmen who invaded Sagwari Layout Estate in Dutse axis of Abuja estate on January 7, 2024.
The kidnappers demanded a ransom of N60 million. Following their inability to raise the money, one of the children, Michelle was killed and her body dumped at Ida, near Ushafa in Bwari Area Council.
According to Ariyo, the kidnappers are threatening to kill his three remaining children and wife if he failed to pay the ransom.
