Sabinus’ Father Abducted and Released After Ransom Payment
According to a report by Premium Times, Sabinus’ father was abducted on the night of July 9, 2024. The incident occurred between 7:30 pm and 8:00 pm when Mr. Ejekwu was returning to his home in Port Harcourt after a trip outside Rivers State. As he was about to enter his house, armed men intercepted and kidnapped him. During their escape, a gunfight broke out between the kidnappers and the local security force, Ospac, resulting in the death of one Ospac member. Additionally, a neighbor of Mr. Ejekwu was struck by a stray bullet and has been hospitalized.
Sabinus, a well-known Nigerian comedian, reacted a few days after his father’s release, which was secured by paying the ransom demanded by the kidnappers. Sabinus has often expressed his deep affection for his father, describing him as his greatest role model and inspiration. He has credited his father as the reason he pursued a career in comedy, sharing his admiration and the impact his father has had on his life.
Previously, Sabinus had joined in this year’s Father’s Day celebration on June 18, sharing endearing photos on social media and humorously describing himself as the father of the next biggest clown. This incident with his father highlights the comedian’s close family ties and the significant influence his father has had on his personal and professional life.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
