Abduction and Ransom Ultimatum
Squadron Leader Nurudeen Popoola, along with his wife and a 16-year-old student, was forcibly taken from their residence at the National Eyes Centre Quarters in Mando, Kaduna, on December 27, 2023, at 1:00 a.m.
Disturbingly, the abductors have set a deadline of January 18, 2024, demanding a staggering N100 million ransom for their release.
Appeals to Tinubu and Makinde
Family members, facing an agonizing race against time, have reached out to Governor Seyi Makinde through an email sent on January 8.
However, as of now, there has been no response. The families also implore Governor Makinde to engage with his Kaduna State counterpart, Uba Sani, in efforts to secure the release of the victims.
Desperate Efforts to Raise Ransom
Facing a dire situation, the family has tirelessly tried to gather the demanded N100 million ransom.
Regrettably, their efforts have yielded only N20 million thus far.
The kidnappers, who had been silent for two weeks, renewed contact on Monday, setting a tight deadline for the ransom payment.
Renewed Plea for Assistance
In a renewed plea, Olatunde Rafiu, a cousin to the Air Force officer, appeals to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Seyi Makinde, urging them to take immediate action within the limited time left.
The desperate plea emphasizes the critical need for assistance to secure the lives of the kidnapped trio.
