Suspected herdsmen have allegedly kidnapped in one week seven residents who returned for Christmas and New Year celebrations in Eha-Amufu, in the Isi-Uzo Local Government Area of Enugu State.<\/p>\n

Fear has gripped residents after about five persons were abducted on Monday along the Eha-Amufu-Agu-Amede-Ikem road.<\/p>\n

According to PUNCH, a community leader, Mr Divine Nwonye, who hails from Agu-Amede community in Eha-Amufu, said that his younger brother, who came home to celebrate Christmas, was among those kidnapped<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nwonye said there was no week without a report of people being kidnapped by bandits suspected to be herdsmen<\/a> along the Eha-Amufu-Ikem road.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no road or security in Isi-Uzo LGA and it is made worse because of bad road. I am begging the governor to look into our plight and save us from the incessant kidnapping along the Eha-Amufu-Agu-Amede-Ikem federal road. Within this year alone, we have recorded no fewer than 10 abductions with 23 people involved.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur people have paid several millions of naira in ransom to herdsmen, while about three people were killed along the road by the same bandits<\/a>,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He stated that in the last one week, they recorded seven kidnap cases on the road.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same bandits after releasing a Catholic priest in one of the parishes in Eha-Amufu, yesterday (Monday) kidnapped about five people just after the Federal College of Education.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs it is now, the abductors have not contacted us. The last time they kidnapped the eight-year-old daughter of the chairman of Agu-Amede community, the Commissioner of Police, Abubakar Lawal, told us to go and pay ransom to the kidnappers. That has worsened our situation as police hardly come when contacted for any case of kidnapping,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Nwonye added that he had abandoned his rice farm for fear of being abducted.<\/p>\n

Another community leader, Raymond Ugwu, said it was unfortunate that the state government could not stop the abductions by fixing the road, which was less than five kilometres.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cThe kidnapping along the Eha-Amufu-Ikem road is largely because of bad road. Every time, our people are running on that road and we don\u2019t have any option than that. On Monday, they kidnapped our people, but I don\u2019t know exactly the number; but they are more than two.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe report I got was that the kidnappers started their operation from 5pm and that was the time our people were returning to their villages and communities. Kidnappers are making the road miserable for us. Our people are no longer going to the market. They are no longer moving around safely; everybody is running helter-skelter.\u201d<\/p>\n

The state police spokesman, Daniel Ndukwe, could not be reached on his telephone line and also did not respond to a text message sent to him on the abductions, PUNCH reports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
