According to Dr. Sadiq, his son’s abductors contacted him and initially demanded for N3 million ransom which he paid and afterwards they demanded for another N1.5 million. He said he had to pay so he could get reunited with his son.
“We were giving them at intervals. They got ₦2 million hand-to-hand from me. The balance of ₦2.5Million was paid into about five bank accounts. But they kept asking for more. That was when I said I can’t bear it anymore, not knowing that they will even kill my son.” Dr Sadiq told Premium times.
The corpse of his son was exhumed from a shallow ditch inside an uncompleted building not far from their home on Sunday April 12.
The distraught Father said he believes that his son’s killers, based on his kidnap and where his body was buried, are well acquainted with his family.
Reacting on the incident, the Police Public Relations in the state, Kamal Datti said two persons have been arrested in connection with the death.
“Two suspects have been arrested in relation to the death, and investigation is on” Datti said

Beautiful young lady and her boyfriend reportedly shot dead by suspected cultists in Ebonyi
A lady identified as Chinenye and her boyfriend, Chinedu Nwode were killed by suspected cultists at Oriuzor community in Ezza North Local Government Area of Ebonyi state on Sunday, November 29.
The killings reportedly followed a renewed clash between two rival cults in the state, the Baggers and Aye confraternities.
It was gathered that the couple were returning from a child dedication in Oriuzor to Onueke when they were shot dead.
The killing was said to have angered some persons suspected to be members of the Aye Confraternity, who in turn killed one Chikwado Nweke and another man at Onueke community in the same local government.
Spokesperson of the State Police Command, DSP Loveth Odah, who confirmed the incident on Tuesday, December 2, condemned the spate of unreported cult killings in the area.
“This is bad and I don’t know why these things are more often heard of in this area. This is condemnable and it’s unfortunate that those who lost their loved ones to these crises have not come up to identify themselves. How can these things be happening in that place and these are brothers and they are just killing themselves,” said Odah.
“On hearing this ugly news, the Ebonyi State Commissioner of Police, Mr Philip Maku, deployed men of the command in the area to ensure that more lives are not lost. The police are investigating the matter and soon, we will tell you what really happened.” she added.
