Super Eagles Captain, John Obi Mikel’s father was kidnapped
and later rescued by cops in Nigeria.
Enugu State Police
Command spokesman, Ebere Amaraizu, said in a statement, Pa Michael Obi and his
driver, Ishaya John, were kidnapped last Friday.
“The Enugu State Command of the Nigeria Police Force
through its operatives of the 9thmile Division on Monday at 2:30 p.m. rescued
Pa Michael Obi and his driver one Ishaya John unhurt in Egede udi forest of
Enugu State along old Egede Affa Road in Enugu.
“They were rescued and Pa Michael Obi and the driver have
rejoined their family. It was gathered that Pa Obi was allegedly abducted along
Makurdi -Enugu road in the afternoon of 29/6/18 on his way from Jos in his grey
colored Toyota pardon jeep with registration number MUS 604CG and taken to
unknown destination through the thick forest part of the area.
“It was further gathered that the abductors started calling
to demand a ransom of N10 million before the operatives acting on intelligence
information swooped on them where a gun duel ensued. This forced the hoodlums
to abandon their victims inside the forest and they were promptly rescued.”
