Command Commissioner, CP Bethrand Onuoha, confirmed this to the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday in Lokoja.
Onuoha described the killing by the abductors as “very unfortunate”.
The CP, who did not give further details, said security operatives were on the trail of the abductors to bring them to book.
