Mark Dauda, an official of APC in the state, confirmed the kidnap, saying the kidnappers are demanding a ransom of N20 million to release their victim.

“The Chairman was picked in his house in Demsa around 1:00am last night, but we’re talking, we’re negotiating his release,” he said.

“They’ve demanded N20 million ransom, that’s all I can tell you for now.”
