Update: Abductors of Missing Abuja Women & Man Demand $300,000 Ransom

It has officially been confirmed that Veronica Otogo, Bisola Muhammed, Damilola Oribuyaku, were abducted. A family friend of one of the victims took to Facebook to confirm the news.

She added that the kidnappers are demanding for a ransom of $300,000 (dollars) equivalent of N 150,000,000 (million) in naira. She wrote:

“Join Our Prayers for the Safety of Damilola
Engr. Oribuyaku, is a family friend. His son, Damilola who just returned from schooling abroad went to have ice-cream at Coldstone, Wuse II Abuja on Friday with two of his female friends. As they were about to get into their cars, a jeep blocked them. The rest was like like a horror film.

They were taken and driven off. The abductors are demanding for $300,000. Engr. Oribuyaku is a hardworking man who has built his businesses with clean money. He doesn’t have that kind of money.

Please, join us in praying for the safety of these young people in the hands of these criminals. May God let us find them alive and in one piece.

N.B: One of our brothers was hit on the head with the butt of a gun in front of this same ice-cream parlour at Gwarimpa last year. Criminals now target places frequently visited by the middle class.
