Unidentified persons, weekend, kidnapped a three-year-old boy, Ejike
Emmanuel, at Akaeze in Ivo Local Government Area of the state.
It was gathered that the boy was abducted in front of his parent’s compound at
Obulo-Iyioji village in Akaeze by two suspected kidnappers, a man and
woman, who disguised as customers to the mother of the victim, Mrs
Nnennaya Emmanuel.
Narrating her ordeal, Mrs Emmanuel said: “I was closing my akara (bean cake) business for the day and dropped Ejike with his four-year-old sister, Nkiruka, and crossed over to the other side of the road to keep the bench I used for the business.
“When I came back, my son was nowhere to be found. I only saw Nkiruka crying and pointing her finger at some people on a motorcycle.”
In his account, the father, Mr Anyim Emmanuel, expressed disbelief that his child could ever be kidnapped on such an ever busy road and called on security agencies to help secure the release of his son.
It was, however, learnt that the parents of the victim raised alarm which attracted some villagers who quickly organised a search party to locate the boy’s whereabouts but all efforts proved abortive as the kidnappers had disappeared.
