Newslanded gathered that Mr. Durbunde who was driving alone got kidnapped on his way to Kano from
Abuja on Tuesday, May 30th 5pm along Kaduna- Jere
road.
However, Abdulrazak Namdas, the spokesman of the
House of Representatives,claimed ignorance of the
incident.
“I am not aware of this but I was told some papers
have carried it,” he told Premium Times.
But a lawmaker, who asked not to be named,
confirmed was said to have confirmed the incident.
Newslanded had reported that a human rights group, Committee for the Defense of Human Rights, has said
that until politicians empower youths who they use for political thuggery, ballot box snatching and other
anti-political behaviours during elections, cultism,
kidnapping and robbery will continue to thrive in the
country.
Former president of the group, Sunny Enenuwedia, in
an interview with Newslanded in Asaba, told our reporter that kidnapping and cultism are the products
of politicians who fail to empower youths in their
constituencies after election, thereby prompting the
youths to resort to armed robbery, kidnapping and
cult related activities.
