The Abductors of Lukman Ibrahim, a dealer in phone accessories in Offa, Offa local government area of Kwara state, whose pregnant wife was killed last Saturday by suspected gunmen have requested for N30 million ransom.
The Nigerian Tribune gathered the latest development from a close family source of the kidnapped victim on Monday evening in Ilorin, who said that the family had only been able to raise N2 million.
“They have asked the family to pay N30million ransom before they could release him. But we only have been able to raise N2million which they rejected.
“We have already lost a pregnant mother, Hauwa who was hit by their stray bullet when the abductors were shooting randomly during the operation,” the source added.
