The kidnappers of eight residents of Munu community in Rubochi in Kuje Area Council of the FCT, have given relatives of the victims seven days to raise N16m or pick their corpses.
Gunmen abducted eight people and killed two others after they invaded Munu community last Wednesday, Feb. 15.
DailyTrust reports that a family member of one of the abducted victims, Donathus Musa, on Sunday said that the gang leader gave the warning while negotiating ransom.
He said it was after contact was established last Friday that the abductors demanded N30m, which was later slashed to N16m after intensive negotiation.
He said: “It was while one of the family members of the abducted victims was negotiating with them that their leader insisted that the family should raise N16m within a week or that they should be ready to come and carry their corpses.
“And aside from the ransom, they are also demanding foodstuff.”
