“They attacked him and took him away. It happened in Aruogba area, near Irhiri at around 7 am when he was going to drop his children in school.
“The children were left by the gunmen and took their father away. But the incident has been reported to security agencies, they have not made any contact with the family.
“It is believed that the kidnappers came through the river because people who saw the incident said they went through the bushes in that area that leads to the riverside. Security agencies have been informed and they are doing everything possible to ensure that he is released unhurt and be reunited with his family”, a family source narrated yesterday.
