The abductors of the Permanent Secretary of the Ondo State Hospital Management Board, Dr. Niran Ikuomola, have reduced the ransom placed on the victim to N20m.
Ikuomola, together with his driver, was kidnapped in Kogi State on his way to Abuja for an official assignment on Sunday.
Reporters gathered that shortly after, the abductors called the family on the telephone and demanded for N70m ransom. A source close to the family said on Thursday that the abductors had called the wife of the victim, Mrs. Omonike Ikuomola, to inform the family about the reduction of the ransom, adding that the family could not still raise the money.
He said,
