In a statement issued by the State’s Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP Daniel Ndukwe, on Wednesday, the CP, who was unhappy with the development, has ordered for the immediate rescue of Eguma.
He stated that Eguma was abducted by yet-to-be-identified gunmen on June 15, at about 4 p.m on the Enugu-Port Harcourt expressway.
The commissioner, however, urged members of the public with useful information that would assist the command in its ongoing investigation, not to hold back.
“The order is sequel to a complaint made to the Anti-Kidnapping Unit of the command, the same date as the incident at about 5:05 p.m, by two other persons traveling with the victim.
