The lawyer and human right activist narrated his sad tale to his friends, fans, relatives, men, women and children who came to jubilate with him and his family at his Lagos residence.
How It All Happened
Wonder how his ordeal started? “Now our ordeal began on Friday August 23, 2013. I was not travelling in the night. I want Nigerians to know the danger that we are into. I was not travelling in the wee hours of the morning. I left Benin some minutes after 2pm in the afternoon, under a scotching sun. I was on my way to my town, Ujugwe in Edo State to see some friends. I was still on the phone when I ran into the kidnappers. I had wanted to leave there and attend a friend’s chieftaincy title in Delta State, after which I was to proceed to Calabar for the Nigeria Bar Association annual meeting.
“I had already paid the registration fee and in fact, my hotel had already been booked but all these were not to come to pass. Because of the callous security situation of Nigeria that has made Nigeria very unfit for the citizens and investors. We ran into a vehicle which already had been used to block the road and my driver said…that reminds me, God bless my driver.
I didn’t mention his name, Chinedu; he went through the entire ordeal with me. Young man, I adopt you as my son. God bless you; he is in Benin now. My driver said to me “Oga ebi like say na armed robbers ooo.” Then I said turn the car. As he put it on reverse, a gun was on my head. Automatic weapon, and they said to me, don’t move, if you move an inch, we blast you. I told Chinedu, ‘don’t move.’ They dragged me out of the car, dragged Chinedu out of the car, shot the trye of the vehicle, put Chinedu in the booth of the car and put me inside the car.Click Here For More...
