50 Igbos kidnapped in Benue within 8 months
This was disclosed by a businessman and prominent member of the Igbo community in Gboko, Mr. Okafor Nnolim.
Speaking with journalists in Enugu, Nnolim stated that there is no week an Igbo person was not kidnapped or murdered in Benue State even as they were subjected to paying millions of naira in ransoms. Chief Ndukaku, a trader at the Gboko Central Market lamented the deteriorating state of insecurity in the State noting that all efforts to get the security agencies and state government to address the matter have fallen on deaf ears.
According to him, “there is virtually no week that an Igbo person is not kidnapped. We have tried to engage the State Police Command to no avail. We are therefore crying out for the world to know the fate of Ndigbo in Benue State.
