Kidnappers Put N500m Ransom Tag On Edo PDP Chairman

After ten days in captivity, the gunmen who abducted the Edo state chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Tony Aziegbemi, on Sunday, contacted his family, and demanded N500 million ransom.

A member of Aziegbemi’s family, who spoke in confidence with newsmen, was silent on what PDP leaders in Nigeria, including Edo Governor, Godwin Obaseki, were doing to raise the ransom.

However, Edo Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Chidi Nwabuzor, a Superintendent of Police (SP), stated that the command was not aware of the huge ransom demanded by the kidnappers.

Recall that GWG.ng reported that Aziegbemi was abducted at 11 p.m., near his personal residence, off Country Home Road, Government Reservation Area (GRA) Benin, after attending a political meeting at Government House in the state capital.
