The abductors of Mrs. Sajo Okeowo and one other have reached out to members of her family, requesting that a ransom of N10m be paid within four days.
It was gathered that Mrs. Okeowo and a family member were traveling from Owo, Ondo State to Minna, the Niger State capital when they were intercepted by the kidnappers.
Having kidnapped the victim last week Thursday, the family was given between Monday/Tuesday this week to pay the ransom or be thrown into mourning as they will not be hesitant to kill her.
In a 7-minute conversation with the nephew of the victim, named Ahmed, the kidnapper who did not reveal his identity warned that if the family fails to pay the ransom within four days, the worst is to be expected.
