Mr. Priestly’s wife, yesterday, made a passionate plea to any group or individual or group that is holding the man, to release him, saying that he is a good man and a loving husband, who has been living in Nigeria for over 30 years. He is also married to a Nigerian with whom they have two children.

A statement signed by the Information and Press Officers of the British High Commission, Mr. Joseph Abuku said: “David’s wife wishes to make a direct appeal to those with any knowledge, saying “he is a good husband and loving father who is well respected within the Nigerian community for all his good works.

“She is asking for anyone with information about Mr Priestly’s current situation to please make contact, so that she can fully understand what has happened.

“Anyone who has relevant information should please contact 08177415460,” the High Commission said.
