Immediate Past Minister Of Environment, Laurentia Laraba Mallam And Husband Kidnapped In Kaduna

According to reports from Punch, unknown gunmen have abducted a former Minister of Environment under Goodluck Jonathan‘s administration, Laurencia Laraba Mallam, and her husband Pius, along the AbujaKaduna expressway.

The ex-minister and her 73-year-old husband were returning to Kaduna from Abuja when they ran into the kidnappers at about 7:00 pm yesterday in Jere, Kagarko local government area who spared their driver.

The Command’s spokesman, ASP Aliyu Usman said that the Police are tracking down the perpetrators and would ensure the release of the victims unharmed.

Sources indicated that the abductors had reached out to the minister’s family demanding for ransom.

However, Usman said the police was not aware of any demand by the abductors.

“All what we are doing is to see that the victims are freed from captivity and returned to their home unhurt,” Usman said.
