“He was picked up on Sunday morning in our house in Buabua, he is just a farmer,” a family source told MMI.

The Perpetrators of the act are reportedly demanding huge sums in ransom to free the captives.

“And this people are asking him 1.5million as ransom,” the family source who opted not to be named, revealed.
