EKO HOT BLOG gathered that the realtor and president of Fugar America Foundation was reportedly shot dead by the kidnappers after he slumped during the forced long march to the bush.

A family source, however, said that the corpse of the US-based Nigerian has been deposited at an undisclosed hospital in Edo State, pending burial arrangements by the grief-stricken relatives.

The abductors who originally demanded a sum of N20 million before setting the victims free later reduced the ransom to N10 million after a series of negotiations and pleadings by the family members.

Meanwhile the Edo Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Chidi Nwabuzor, a Superintendent of Police (SP) is yet to confirm the reports about the prince at the time of filing this report.
