Kidnappings PLC

A six-year old girl was abducted yesterday in Port Harcourt, capital of Rivers State.

Prite Anthony, a pupil of IBCF School, Woji, Port Harcourt, was on her way to school when the abductors struck.

Eyewitnesses said some unknown men riding in a Mercedez Benz 190 car stopped the car in which the girl was being taken to school. The incident happened at D Line. They dragged her out, put her in their car and sped off.

This is really a sad commentary on the agitations of people of the South-South region.

Increasing cases of kidnap of toddlers and relatives of wealthy people in the zone is not the way foward to realise their objectives.

This trend has to stop and leaders of the region have to support security agencies to stop criminals from hijacking their struggle for a better south-south region.
