“We are, therefore, appealing to members of the public, especially those in that area to furnish the police with revenant information that will lead to the rescue of the victim and arrest of the kidnappers,” Longe said.

Meanwhile, a family source who preferred anonymity told News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the victim was abducted from his residence in Utah village near Lafia at about 7.30 p.m. on Thursday.

According to the source, the gunmen in large number, stormed the house bearing sophisticated weapons and whisked the monarch away to an unknown destination.

He said that the traditional ruler was taken away on a motorcycle by his abductors.

He also said that the kidnappers contacted the family on Saturday on phone to demand for N50 million ransom after allowing the monarch to speak with family members.
