Unknown gunmen have kidnapped nine passengers of a commercial bus travelling along Emuoha area of the East-West road in Rivers State.
Speaking to newsmen, a native of Odegu community in Emuoha Local Government Area, Prince Chukwu, said the incident occurred at a boundary between Evekwu and Rumuodogo within Emohua Local Government Area of the state on Wednesday night, November 2.
Chukwu said before policemen who got a distress call arrived the scene, the hoodlums had fled with their captives.
He said;
“Yesterday (Wednesday) night, they kidnapped nine people at the boundary between Evekwu and Rumuodogo.
“Before the policemen at Elibrada junction came (arrive the scene), the boys (kidnappers) have left with the boys inside the bush. Even the policemen at Rumuj ran away.
“The best solution is for the OSPAC to be brought back because they know these bad boys and the route they operate.
“Let them forget this politics they are playing and return OSPAC. That is my own advice.”
