64-year-old Man Murdered By Kidnappers After Paying 10million For Ransom by yemfemNg(f): 5:38am On Dec 21, 2017
The police have arrested seven suspects who allegedly kidnapped and murdered a 64-year-old man, Mr Ubani Onyema, after collecting N10m ransom.

The Team Commander, Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team, Abba Kyari, confirmed the arrest on Wednesday in Lagos.

Kyari, an Assistant Commissioner of Police, said the victim, a production manager in Niger Delta Petroleum Resources Ltd., was kidnapped by gunmen in Woji area of Port Harcourt on Oct. 16.

He said that a ransom call was made to the hostage’s company demanding N100m.

“Eventually, the ransom was negotiated down to N10m, which was paid to the kidnappers despite not getting a proof of life.

“IRT operatives deployed to Port Harcourt by IGP Ibrahim Idris swung into action as the hostage was not released after the ransom was paid as negotiated and agreed.

“Unrelenting follow up by the IRT eventually led to the arrest of seven of the kidnappers. Suspects confessed to various roles each played in the kidnap.

“They admitted that the victim died on the very day of his kidnap as a result of gunshot wounds he sustained during the incident.

“They still went ahead to collect a ransom of N10m,” Kyari said.

He said that the arrested suspects, including the gang leader, allegedly confessed to the crime.
