Davido’s logistics manager, Israel DMW, has appealed to the Federal Government to urgently address the growing wave of kidnappings in Edo State.
Naijaonpoint reports that he raised the alarm after sharing a disturbing video on his Instagram page showing a young woman who had been abducted by gunmen.
In the footage, the woman appeared frightened and tearful as she pleaded for help while her captors demanded ransom.
Israel expressed concern over the worsening insecurity, saying people in Edo now live in fear as kidnappers reportedly move freely on major roads and in rural communities.
He wrote: “This is becoming too much. The Federal Government should please come to our aid in Edo State.”
In a related news, gunmen suspected to be kidnappers on Tuesday abducted six passengers, including three staff members of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), along the Aloma axis of Kogi State.
The victims, identified as Chinenye Orji, Adamaka Anih, and Catherine Temaugee, were said to be on official assignment to Anambra State ahead of the November 8 governorship election when they were attacked by the gunmen.
Sources confirmed to Sahara Reporters that the INEC officials were deployed to print voters’ registers and other sensitive materials for the poll.
