“The Chairman was driving in a Venza car along the road when the bandits shot at one of the tyres of the car.
“He was taken into a Toyota Hilux van and driven off. He was alone in the car when the incident happened, according to the information we have.
“It happened in the evening; we got the information at about 6p.m. The security agencies – police and Amotekun – have been alerted, and they are all working on it,” Dipe narrated.
The State’s Police Command as of late Saturday is yet to confirm the incident.
The Command’s Public Relations Officer, Sunday Abutu, when contacted, said he would get back once the abduction is confirmed.
