Gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have abducted Israel Ejiro Inyanabor, a councillor representing Ewohimi Ward One in Esan South-East Local Government Area of Edo State.
The incident happened along Ewatto-Ubiaja-Okhuesan Road near Ena River in Esan South-East LGA of the state on Wednesday, December 2.
It was gathered that suspected bandits abducted a teacher, Mr Aluola and his wife from the same spot by suspected bandits on Monday and are asking for N15 million as ransom from the family before they would be released.
A resident of Ewohimi, Festus Ehigiator, who confirmed the latest kidnap, said the councillor was driving along Ewatto-Ubiaja-Okhuesan Road when the gunmen suddenly emerged from a nearby bush and opened fire.
