Unknown Gunmen Kidnap Army Major-General In Imo

Major General RC Duru (rtd), was kidnapped by unknown gunmen in the Orji General area, Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo last weekend and has spent about five days in captivity.

It was gathered that the retired Major General was abducted last weekend by unknown kidnappers and he is still in the captivity of his abductors.

According to SaharaReporters, the Major-General was driving himself in a black Mercedes Benz ML jeep when the gunmen ambushed and kidnapped him.

A signal obtained by the publication reads: “He was kidnapped by 4 persons in a Toyota Sienna.

“The kidnappers went with his vehicle and checkpoints were informed. His phone 08033567459 was tracked to Mba Itoli in Imo before it was switched off.

“Efforts are ongoing to locate the kidnappers and rescue the rtd General. All are requested to make efforts using all contacts (though discretely) to hasten return of the kidnapped General.

“Maj Gen Duru is a member of 33rd Regular and NDC 18.”

GWG.ng reports that the kidnap of the retired Major-General is bound to add to the narrative of conflict in the Southeast and is bound to attract what many fear would be a harsh reprisal from the army in a development that would mostly leave the ordinary citizens as victims.
