The senator’s wife was snatched out of her Hummer
by gunmen in Port Harcourt
The wife of George Sekibo, the senator representing
Rivers East Senatorial District in the National
Assembly, has been kidnapped in Port Harcourt.
Mr. Sekibo’s wife, Asime George-Sekibo, was kidnapped
on March 22 along East-West road while returning
from the University of Port Harcourt.
Sources told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that
Mrs George-Sekibo was driving a Hummer, a luxury
SUV, along the road when she was ambushed by the
gunmen.
NAN learnt that the hoodlums whisked her away with
three other women and a baby who were in her
company.
“Her jeep was abandoned on the road while the
kidnappers took them away in their own vehicle,’’ the
source said.
When contacted, Ben Ugwuegbulam, the Police Public
Relations Officer (PPRO), confirmed the abduction.
Mr. Ugwuegbulam, however, told NAN that he was yet
to receive the details of the incident.
"I have not yet gotten the details of the incident. I am
waiting for it. I will furnish you with the details later.”

Wat goes arnd comes arnd

I hope and pray it's true, don't harm her sha. Just pass the message to those thieves in NASS.

That is nobody's bussiness her husband knows wat to do aftrall he has stolen enuf money. Thank you nigeria.

They are occupying their resources

May be they needed some ransom and am sure the senator is in good position to meet their demand.

I xpect more kidnapping I wonder wat the boko haram are waiting 4. Go ahead and frustrate their misery lives wicked leaders

I hope Boko Haram can replicate this in the North instead of killing innocent citizens!!!

Anyone driving a civilian status symbol Hummer SUV in a Third World country such as Nigeria should not expect pity from the vast majority of bystanders in the event of a car-jacking. Even if the Hummer happened to have been purchased at a bargain price off a used car lot in Dallas before being shipped to Nigeria, it becomes, on reaching African soil, a vulgar status symbol signifying conspicuous consumption amid the squalor of abject poverty.

A Hummer reeks of BIG money, making it natural prey for prowling road-pirates on the lookout for that big score. The kidnapping of a politician’s wife described in this report is a natural consequence of the instant monetary VALUE that gets assigned to all passengers conveyed inside high-end vehicles that get commandeered, be that on the mean streets of Mexico City, Bogota, Colombia, or Lagos, Nigeria.

By showing off a Hummer on the roads of Nigeria, the person being chauffeured is saying a sneering "phuck you" to the starving hordes gawking outside that air-conditioned cocoon of decadent luxury. That rich person is telling the huddled poor to eat cake instead of going hungry, if their anguish is about bread shortages, but most importantly, Hummer owners immediately identify themselves as members of Nigeria's looting political class, whose embezzlement careers DIRECTLY cause the medieval deprivation and suffering around them.

And yet, even in the face of the perils they attract by ostentatious living, Nigeria's idle rich simply cannot resist the temptation to show off before the poor, while maybe tossing them a few coins, before resorting to pleading and prayer when they do inevitably fall victim to the Universal Laws of Karma, as exemplified by this press report.

cash247: I hope Boko Haram can replicate this in the North instead of killing innocent citizens!!!

That means you are supporting kidnapping.

If na we we or them them den dey kidnap I think say e go better pass foreigners, kidnapping foreigners will have negative effect on our international relation, I beg the (kidnappers) to limit their activities to we we (Nigerians) most esp corrupt leaders and their family members and make sure they bill them billion as ransome and failure to pay must result in death.

naija. drivin hummer with our cash. by the way wats up with dat guy they saw 2billion in his apartment. i can use OBJ'S life to bet they wil do nothing to dat guy.

Very ok to kidnap all these legislaTHIEVES family members.
If that is the only way to get back the mega millions they receive for doing nothing from the taxes we pay and those they collect from the oil companies & corporate organisations on our behalf.
Just the other day another senator's driver decided to take his own share of oga's loot of the poor masses.
Let them support free education, free health, living minimum wage, electricity, roads etc- No they won't!!!
Meanwhile when are they going to kidnap Tinubu;s wife?

Na wao.

You are correct. The senator in question has not written any tangible bill since being a senator for the second year running.

she dey sample hummer abi?....now boiz don hammer.

So this man is now a senator? I rememba wen he was minister of transport, he has a son by the name Opuda sekibo, we call him opus, a very fat boy in my secondary school then. I wonder where the son is now. He use to spend alot and even sponsor our classmates most especially girls. Bottom line, the man knows wat to do, just send d poor hoodlums sme cash.

May God y'll that support this, If only these govt are the target then may God bless kidnappers
Let them(politicians get frustrated as the ordinary guy is in Nigeria maybe that will be our only
Hope of making them think better about Nigeria

But its still our money that the senator stole that will be used to sort the boys

If that is the only way to get back the mega millions they receive for doing nothing from the taxes we pay and those they collect from the oil companies & corporate organisations on our behalf. [img]http://www.demama.info/hjk[/img]

Good. Let Boko Haram, OPC and MEND form an alliance and start kidnaping these corrupt politicians and their families especially the National Assembly members who are milking us dry. They should kidnap them to get their own share of the National Cake.

From all these, it is clear that Nigerian leaders haven't learnt a single thing from history. Ask the Boers of South Africa and they will tell you a bit about the backlash effects of oppressing the citizens for too long.

So she was cruising a hummer jeep eh? Good! In the midst of poverty and pain, public servants are cruising around in powerful automobile with prices that can cater for thousands of hungry mouths for many months. how sad.

Well, Nigerian leaders have laid their beds for decades and should now prepare to lie upon the thorns they have sown into the bedding. The fractures which have been appearing in the fabrics of this nation have now become gaping holes of destruction.

Nigerian leaders can't even cruise around safely in the bullet-proof hummer jeeps they invested so much in.

Things have finally fallen apart.

At time i mervel at d responses we get here nl pple supporting evil, so kidnapping is now a thing of joy. Smh

dayokanu: They are occupying their resources

.............. Next time try add NONI.. They r occupying their belongings noni ooo!

One day the poor will have only the rich to eat.
