The kidnappers of Mike Ogiasa, a relative of former president Goodluck Jonathan, have released a disturbing video of him.
On June 4, 2022, Mr. Ogiasa was abducted in his hometown of Otuabadi, which is located in the Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa.
A half-clothed Ogiasa begs for his life in a flooded grave, his hands tied and his face hidden, in the 27-second video.
He says, “You’re seeing me in the grave. Please do everything possible to come and release me. Any money that is available…any money you can make. Do everything possible. Please any money that is available. Is the money more important than my life? Please do everything that is possible.”
Ogiasa was former Bayelsa State governor Seriake Dickson’s special adviser on power development.
Bayelsa police spokesperson Asinim Butswat said a combined investigative effort is in progress to rescue Ogiasa and arrest the kidnappers.
Ogiasa was also the convener of a socio-political group known as Voice of the South-South.
