A United States of America female citizen was kidnapped in central Nigeria’s Kogi State overnight, a security source and the website of her church, the Free Methodist Church, said on Tuesday.
Nigeria is one of the world’s worst country’s for kidnapping, a major criminal enterprise that makes millions of dollars a year.
A US State Department official said authorities had heard the reports but could not make further comments in the interest of privacy.
