Another Monarch Kidnapped In Delta State. by Adeznuru(m): 3:32pm On Jan 29, 2016 |
Odion-Ologbo of Olomoro Kingdom, Isoko
South council area of Delta state, King Josiah
Umukoro, Aghaza 1, has been kidnapped, by
unidentified armed men from his palace.
King Umukoro’s incident came barely a week
after a similar earlier incident, involving the late
king of Ubulu-Uku in Aniocha North council area
of the state, Obi Akaeze Edward Ofulue III.
Obi Ofulue, who was allegedly kidnapped by
suspected Fulani herders, was found dead about
a week ago.
Although facts surrounding the kidnap of the
Odion-Ologbo were still sketchy at the time of
filing this report, The Nation gathered that he
was apprehended by his kidnappers about
7:30am on Friday and was whisked away to an
unknown destination.
According to sources, the monarch was whisked
away in a RAV 4 Sports Unitility Vehicle (SUV),
painted in dark green colour.
Confirming the incident in a brief statement, the
Isoko South council chairman, Sir Itiako
Constantine Ikpokpo, expressed confidence that
the abducted monarch would be rescued.
“Yes, he was abducted this morning in Olomoro.
I was alerted at about 8:30am. The police and
army swung immediately into action with the
help of the vigilante. We are confident he will be
rescued”, Ikpokpo said.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Celestina
Kalu (DSP), said there was no lead yet on the
kidnap of the monarch, but said the command
had commenced moves to secure his release.
“No lead yet, it happened this morning, but we
are on their track,” she said.
