"We have not been contacted and as such we don't know his present location, as I told you, we have only recovered the car through the assistance of somebody who saw it and reported to us." That was Mrs Rose Obi, Mikel's mother.
"We have been contacted. We are happy. At least, we know he is alive." That was the eldest Obi.
Now, it has been revealed the kidnappers have demanded €90,000 (about 20 million naira). So, which exactly do people out there believe? Has Mr Obi been confirmed alive and the family contacted? Or is it just his car, rather than himself, that has been 'contacted'?
Well, as long as the police are in control, then no problem.
