Chukwudi Ogbonna, the Accord Party candidate for the Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area Constituency 2 in the Rivers State House of Assembly in the March 18 election, has been kidnapped.
Mr. Ogbonna was reportedly kidnapped on Monday night while driving in his car in Rumuigbo, near Port Harcourt, when gunmen forced him to stop and whisked him away in his car.
Ifeaka Nwakiri, the candidate’s cousin’s brother, confirmed the incident to our correspondent on Tuesday morning.
“They took him with his Mercedes car. We have reported the matter at the Kala Police station.”
