Sources told Vanguard that negotiation is still ongoing and no amount has been offered by families of the victims.

Security source speaks

A security source in the state informed Vanguard that “we are keeping tabs on the incident and aware that a ransom of N10 million has been demanded.”

The source declined further comments because of the sensitive nature of the case.

Recall that the kidnappers killed one person and abducted 13 others in different parts of Kaduna State last Saturday.

Among those kidnapped were a pastor and his daughter as well as 11 other persons who were abducted during a choir rehearsal at ECWA Church, Dankade.
