Less than 24 hours after the kidnap of Muiba, wife to Osun State House of Assembly Speaker, Hon. Najeem Salaam, her abductors have demanded N200m ransom for her release.

According to an inside source, the kidnappers phoned the Speaker on Wednesday to make the demand. They were said to have told Hon. Salaam to call them back between 11am and 12 noon on Wednesday, assuring him that his wife was in safe hands.

It was further learnt that the hoodlums assured him that his wife would be released to him unhurt as soon as the money is paid. The Speaker however refused to comment on the matter.

Meanwhile, investigation has revealed that the six-man gang trailed Muiba, who is in her 40s, from her shop in Olota’s compound to the Speaker’s residence in Oke Oyo area.

According to reports, she was driving home in a Honda car with the state House of Assembly number plate when she noticed the suspicious movement behind her car.

She quickly alighted at the front of her house and made a dash into the compound but the gunmen caught up with her and forced her into their waiting car before speeding off.

The state House of Assembly has described the kidnap as “strange, barbaric and criminal”. A statement by the Press Secretary to the Speaker, Mr Goke Butikakuro, said the incident might be aimed at disrupting the peace in the state.

The Action Congress of Nigeria, Osun State chapter, described the development as “an ominous development signalling the gradual but seemingly unstoppable spread of criminality and anarchy across the country”
