Although the journalist could not immediately be reached for details on the incident, a family friend said their abductors have demanded for N50 million for the release of the victims.
"Yes, three of Ajobe's family members were kidnapped at gunpoint at about 3 pm. on Thursday. The kidnappers reached out on Friday afternoon demanding N50 million as ransom.
"However, I can't confirm what the family is offering in the negotiations because I had to leave the community for an emergency in Lokoja. What I can say is that no amount has been paid yet, and the victims are still in captivity," he explained.
