“Our community has been thrown into confusion as we have yet to establish any contact with the abductors. We want the security and the government to swing into action and ensure our people return safely.

Peter bemoaned the fact that this incident marked the third time someone in his family had been abducted, noting how it had severely harmed the family’s finances.

“We have nowhere to raise money for any ransom. The whole community is traumatised by this sad situation. Our last hope lies in the security agencies and the government,” Peter added.
