The source, who lives in the same area with the victims, said the kidnappers have contacted the families of the hostages, demanding a ransom of N100 million for their release.

“Anong the three people that were kidnapped on Friday night in the Mpape area is a DHQ official, Akor.

“The kidnappers have already reached out to their families and are demanding N100m ransom,” the source said.

Efforts to reach the Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj. Gen. Markus Kangye, and the Director of Defence Information, Brig. Gen. Tukur Gusau, were unsuccessful, as they had yet to respond to messages as of the time of filing this report.

Wike is incompetent and unfit to handle a sensitive place like a Federal capital.

A state of emergency should be declared in Abuja to save lives and properties of Nigerians.

We need to declare a state of emergency in Abuja immediately

Nyesom Wike is not able to provide security to the lives of Abuja Residents.

Tinubu will announce in a broadcast tonight, the new FCT administrator

In Person of Rtd General Joe Blow....who will oversee the FCT for the next 6 months.

The senate and house of rep will carry out an AYE and NAY votes first thing on Monday morning.

Akpabio will announce that the AYE's have it.Without showing a 2/3 Quorum or showing who voted or who abstained.

This is about the 20th major kidnapping in Abuja, in less than 2 weeks, the seat of federal might, and a military personnel for that matter.

This is unacceptable and a declaration of war against the federation. Military personnel are strategic assets to the nation as such, these acts cannot be allowed to stand.

I fully support that BAT declare a state of emergency in the FCT and appoint a 'sole administrator'.

I concur! Declare SoE immediately, afterall, what is good for the goose is also good for the gander. Even incidents happening in the FCT and Rivers, when compared, FCT is more volatile and without safety of lives and properties
