A gang of suspected gunmen have kidnapped Mrs Blessing Adagba, Coordinator of Ngbo Central Development Centre, Ohaukwu Local Government Area of Ebonyi State .
Development centres were created from local governments in the state by former administration of Sam Egwu to step down development to the grassroots.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Joshua Ukandu said the gunmen kidnapped Adagba in the early hours of Thursday. He noted that police operatives were already on the matter.
“The Anti-Kidnapping Squad has already moved for the rescue of the victim, Adagba. I believe they are working hard to secure her immediate release.
“Yes, Adagba was abducted at Okposhi Eheku community in Ohaukwu Local Government Area of the state,” he said.
It was gathered that the abductors of the coordinator have contacted her family and are demanding N30million for her freedom.
