The chairman, however, declined to give further details but said the matter had since been reported to the state police command.
“The police have already swung into action with a view to rescuing the victim, “Muazu said.
WuzupNaija learned that the armed hoodlums, who stormed the residence of Babangida around 12 midnight and whisked him away, are demanding for the payment of N50 million ransom before releasing him.
