Armed men, on Friday, abducted the Managing Director of Fouani Company, the local representatives for LG and Hisense, along with three Lebanese nationals. The abduction took place while the victims were traveling by boat from Apapa to Victoria Island.
The victims were reportedly seized near the Falomo Bridge, a bustling area known for its commercial activities. Eyewitnesses say the kidnappers intercepted the boat, swiftly taking the four individuals captive. The identities of the victims have not yet been disclosed.
A source with knowledge of the situation, who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the case, revealed that the kidnappers have already contacted relevant parties to demand a ransom.
“Yesterday (Friday) evening, the Managing Director of Fouani company (LG and Hisense) and three Lebanese were kidnapped around Falomo Bridge while traveling from Apapa to Victoria Island by boat.”
“The kidnappers have asked for $1.5m,” the source said.
