His abductors had earlier reached out to a family member but did not give any condition for his release.

However, a family source said the kidnappers later reached out this Friday night requesting for the sum of N70million before the former deputy governor can regain his freedom.

The family members were said to have offered the kidnappers the sum of N2million, noting that there was no way they can raise the N70million ransom demanded.

“The kidnappers are in touch with the family of Professor and they demanded for the sum of N70 million, but the family offered them N2 million, which they refused.
