Unknown gunmen dressed in police uniform have abducted the Amanyanabo of Oporoama community, in Asari-Toru Local Government Area of Rivers State, Tobotamuno Dick, from his Port Harcourt residence at about 7pm on Monday.
His younger brother, Tonye Dick, said Tubotamuno was abducted at about 7pm shortly after he returned from an event.
Tonye said some of the abductors were dressed in Police uniforms.
“As I speak to you, I am in his house without knowing his whereabouts. The royal highness of a community cannot be picked and whisked away as a common criminal. He was just whisked away just like that. Whoever took him away should please bring him back because of his aged mother and family,”
Tubotamuno, a lawyer, is a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Asari-Toru Local Government Area in Rivers State.
Prior to the general election, he had once been arrested by soldiers for an undisclosed offence but later released.
At the time of filing this report, Police in Rivers State have not issued any statement whether their men arrested him or they were just kidnappers impersonating the Police.
