Some yet-to-be identified gunmen have
abducted 86-year-old Benson Adigio-Eseni, an uncle of former Governor of
Bayelsa State, Chief Timipre Sylva.
The abduction of the octogenarian was said to have further heightened the challenges of insecurity in the state.
It was learnt that Adigio-Eseni was
abducted at about 2am on Sunday from his residence in Okpoama in the
Brass Local Government Area of the state.
His abduction came barely about 10 days
after two persons, Bukuromo Odidikuma and Awotimigha Iyabi, an aide to
Sylva’s Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Nathan Egba, were
killed by gunmen suspected to be sea pirates operating on the
Nembe-Brass River.
