He said: “We got the news like everyone else this morning, but the Commissioner of Police in Anambra, CP Enaghe Obono Itam has reached out to the CP in that state (Kogi) rallying him to action to see how they can be freed.
“The commissioner has also posted the news in some of their strategy forum, to see what can be done. He has pledged to give all support, including any information that may be needed for the rescue.”
As at the time of filing this report, the kidnappers were yet to contact the abducted commissioner’s family.
However, there is confusion as to where the event happened. Whilst some sources said the incident happened in Kogi State, some close relatives of the commissioner have been quoted as saying that it happened at Ubiaja, Edo State.
