The source further disclosed that those who carried out the act spoke in Fulani language throughout the operation which lasted for ten minutes, adding that the incident has been reported to the Divisional Police headquarters in the local government.

According to him, all arrangements and preparations for the wedding slated for today (Monday) have been put on hold while the groom has gone into seclusion.

“As I am talking to you, the groom is yet to come to terms with the reality. There are different insinuations to the incident, it is a hopeless situation. Both the church and the family are eagerly waiting for a call from the kidnappers,” he said.

When contacted the State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Ubah Gabriel Ogiba, said the incident has not been reported to the State Command.
