Sell the palace to raise our N20 million ransom – kidnappers tell abducted monarch’s family

Abductors of the traditional ruler of Bukpe community in Kwali area council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) have directed family members of the monarch to sell his house in order to raise the N20 million ransom they are demanding.

Neptune Prime reports that kidnappers invaded the palace of the monarch, His Royal Highness (HRH) Alhaji Hassan Shamidozhi, on Wednesday night.

A family member of the traditional ruler, who preferred anonymity, said the kidnappers have vowed not to release him until they get N20 million.

“In fact, even on Saturday morning, they called and directed the family to go and sell his house so that they can raise N20m ransom for them,” he said.

“One of the family members that they were communicating with told them that even the house that the chief is residing is not worth N5 million,”.

According to him, the leader of the kidnappers threatened to keep the monarch in their custody even if it takes a year to raise the N20 million ransom.
