A 60-year-old man, Musa Gidado whose wife and three children were kidnapped in Abaonigbe Odilu community, a suburb of Ilorin, Kwara State, said they have resorted to prayers in the effort to secure the release of the victims from captivity.
Gidado who spoke with LEADERSHIP in Ilorin on Friday said the kidnappers have reduced the N100milliom ransom they initially demanded to N30million.
He, however, said that ” we don’t even have N3million talkess of N30million. We have resorted to God’s intervention through prayers.”
He said that the kidnappers spoke with them on Tuesday and said they have reduced the N100million ransom to N30million.
Gidado said he heard her wife crying on phone – an indication that she was being tortured by the kidnappers.

He disclosed that they learnt that the police have arrested two suspects in connection with the abduction of his wife and children.
When contacted, the state commissioner of police, Adekimi Ojo said no arrest had been made in connection with the Oke- Oyi area’s abduction.
He, however, said efforts were being intensified to secure the release of the woman and her children.
“Our men in conjunction with local vigilantes and members of Miyetti Allah are combing the bush to locate the kidnappers’ hideout and rescue the woman and her children,” Ojo said.
The woman and her three children were abducted about three weeks ago when the kidnappers invaded their community.
