After days of silence, abductors of the Chairman of Kaura Local Government Area (LGA) of Kaduna State, Hon. (Dr.) Humble Katuka have agreed to free him if the sum of N30 million is paid to them.
A family source disclosed this to TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) via a phone call, revealing the negotiation started on Saturday when they asked for N100 million ransom.
“We pleaded and they later reduced to N80 million… we kept pleading and they agreed for N30 million….” the source said.
Recall that TNG had reported that Katuka, an APC chieftain in Southern Kaduna as well as a sitting Council Boss of Kaura LGA was kidnapped on his way to his farm in Juji Village, Chikun LGA of the State.
