Unknown gunmen have abducted two Chinese expatriates, identified as Chen Wenguang and Liang Ding, in the Kemta/Abule-Owu area, along Onigbedu Road in Ogun State.
The two Chinese nationals were said to be kidnapped around 1:45 pm on Sunday when they left the company to visit some friends.
A police source said that Wenguang and Ding were affiliated with the Good One Carton Company situated in the area.
“Wenguang and Ding left the company on their own, without notifying security, including the police and military assigned to the company, nor did they inform the company itself.
“They mentioned to a few people that they were heading to Kémta village, about a kilometre away from the company, to visit some friends,” the source said.
When contacted, the police spokesperson in the state, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the incident, saying that the kidnappers had contacted the company to demand a ransom for their release.
She said, “The company’s security supervisor reported that one of the expatriates called to inform him that Wenguang and Ding had been kidnapped and that the kidnappers were demanding money in exchange for their release.
“Our operatives in the Ewekoro Division, with the assistance of local vigilantes, military personnel from the Social Orientation and Safety Corps, local hunters, and other security groups, thoroughly searched the entire Kémta Village forest for the duo but were unable to find them.”
According to her, efforts to secure the release of the duo were ongoing.
