Yenagoa—The kidnapped wife of former Speaker of
Bayelsa State House of Assembly and ex-Acting governor
of the state, Madam Martha Nestor Binabo, has regained
her freedom.
The 48-year-old woman was handed over to a negotiator
at Buguma area of Rivers State in the early hours of
yesterday, according to a family source.
While some denied knowledge of payment of ransom,
others claimed that N8.2m was paid to secure her
freedom.
The kidnappers were said to have warned the family not
to involve the police in any rescue effort.
Madam Binabo was allegedly released with a transport
fare of N18,000 and a bag of fish.
When contacted, the state Police Public Relations
Officer, Asinim Butswat, said he was yet to be briefed on
the development but a family source confirmed her
release, saying “she was well taken care of by the
kidnappers.”
It was learned that the kidnappers gave her N18,000 as
transport and a big bag of fresh fish for her family.
Madam Binabo was kidna-pped last Monday by armed
men clad in military uniform at Abura on the outskirts of
Yenagoa, the state capital.
The gunmen were said to have lured their victim outside
her company’s gate for a talk only to force her into a
waiting car and drove towards Otuokpoti sand dump,
where they escaped into the creeks in a speedboat.
