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.

During their escape, a gunfight broke out between the kidnappers and the local security force, Ospac, resulting in the death of one Ospac member.

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.
