FOUR persons, a man, woman, and two children have been kidnapped by suspected terrorists in Kolo village, in the Gusau Local Government Area of Zamfara State.
Reports reveals that after the victims were taken hostage, the suspects requested a N10 million ransom and turned down the old naira notes.
Mohammed Ibrahim, a local, stated that the terrorists eventually lowered the demanded ransom to N5m and that residents of the village had been working to acquire the money to ensure the victims’ safe release.
“As we were trying to gather the money demanded by the terrorists, they sent another message this morning that they would not collect old naira notes.
“They said they would keep the abducted persons in their camps until the release of the new naira notes in December,” Ibrahim said.
