Abductors of the Chairman of the Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Philip Aivoji, yesterday demanded N200 million for his release.
The Lagos PDP chairman was abducted around the Ogere section of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway while returning from a stakeholders’ meeting in Oyo State convened by Governors Seyi Makinde and Ademola Adeleke.
His abduction alongside some party chieftains was confirmed by the State PDP Publicity Secretary, Hon. Hakeem Amode.
Amode, in a statement, called upon security agencies and government authorities at all levels to intervene promptly and secure the release of the party chairman.
He noted that the abduction of the chairman underscores the pressing need for decisive actions from the government and stakeholders to eradicate this menace.
He therefore implored the governments of Oyo, Ogun, and Lagos states, alongside security agencies, to expedite efforts and secure his safe return to his family and well-wishers
