The youth president of Afenifere, a socio-cultural organization for the Yoruba people of Nigeria, Prince Eniola Ojajuni, has been reportedly kidnapped in Abuja.
According to reports from close sources, the President was shot in the buttocks before whisking him away, making his abduction all the more alarming.
In a press statement by the National Secretary of Afenifere National Youth Council, Abiodun Aderohunmu, said, “deeply concerned about his safety and well-being, and we urge the kidnappers to release him unharmed.”
Aderohunmu expressed the council’s sadness and concern over the kidnapping, which occurred on Monday.
The kidnappers have demanded a staggering ransom of N100 million for Prince Ojajuni’s release.
The council fears that the wounded youth leader may not be receiving the medical attention he needs, having sustained a bullet wound.
Aderohunmu reiterated the council’s plea, saying, “We are deeply concerned about his safety and well-being, and we urge the kidnappers to release him alive.”
The Afenifere National Youth Council has called on the Nigerian authorities to take immediate action to ensure Prince Ojajuni’s safe release.
The council also appeals to the general public to provide any information that may lead to his rescue.
Aderohunmu assured that the council would continue to work tirelessly to ensure Prince Ojajuni’s safe return, while advocating for the safety and security of all Nigerians.
This incident is a stark reminder of the growing insecurity and kidnapping threats in Nigeria.
As the search for Prince Ojajuni continues, the nation holds its breath, hoping for his safe return.
